      2.  Description of Demised Premises.  Landlord hereby leases to Tenant 
and Tenant hereby hires from Landlord, the premises described in Section 
1(d) (the "Demised Premises" or the "Premises").  The Demised Premises are 
part of a multi-tenant building (the "Building") located on the land (the 
"Land") shown on the Plot Plan Rider (the Land and Building and other 
improvements thereon, collectively, the "Property").  Landlord reserves the 
right to install pipes, wiring, shafts, vents, conduits and the like through 
the Premises and Tenant shall not be entitled to any reduction of Annual 
Base Rent by reason thereof.  Without limiting the foregoing, Landlord 
agrees that in exercising its rights under the immediately preceding 
sentence it shall use good faith efforts to minimize interference with 
Tenant's use and occupancy of the Premises.

      3.  Term.  The term of the Lease (the "Term") shall commence on the 
date set forth in Section 1(e) (the "Commencement Date") and terminate on 
the date set forth in Section 1(e) (the "Expiration Date"), except as 
hereinafter provided.

      The first Lease Year shall be the period commencing on the 
Commencement Date and ending twelve calendar months thereafter, provided, 
however, that if the Commencement Date is not the first day of a month, the 
first Lease Year shall commence on the Commencement Date and end twelve 
calendar months from the last day of the month in which the Commencement 
Date occurs.  Each succeeding twelve calendar month period thereafter shall 
be a Lease Year.

      4.  Annual Base Rent; Additional Rent.  (a)  As of the Commencement 
Date the Tenant shall pay to the Landlord at the address set forth in Par. 
1(b), or to such other person or at such other place as the Landlord may 
from time to time designate in a written notice to Tenant, WITHOUT PREVIOUS 
DEMAND THEREFOR AND WITHOUT COUNTERCLAIM, DEDUCTION OR SET-OFF OF ANY NATURE 
WHATSOEVER EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE HEREINAFTER EXPRESSLY SET FORTH, the annual 
base rent ("Annual Base Rent") set forth on the Annual Base Rent Rider 
attached hereto.  Annual Base Rent shall be payable in monthly installments 
as set forth on the Annual Base Rent Rider in advance on or before the first 
day of each month during the term of the Lease.  If the Commencement Date 
shall be other than the first day of a calendar month, Tenant shall pay 
Landlord on the Commencement Date the proportionate amount of Annual Base 
Rent for the balance of such month.  The first full monthly installment of 
Annual Base Rent shall be paid by Tenant on the execution of this Lease, 
together with the Security Deposit in the amount set forth in Par. 1(g).

      (b)  Tenant shall also pay to Landlord Tax Rent and Expense Rent in 
accordance with the Real Estate Tax Rider and Operating Expense Rider 
attached hereto.

      (c)  All other sums other than Annual Base Rent payable by Tenant 
under this Lease, including, but not limited to Tax Rent, Expense Rent, 
Service Fees, Default Interest (as said terms are hereinafter defined), 
insurance costs, utility charges, Landlord's reasonable attorneys' fees and 
court costs, maintenance and repair costs and any other charges or costs due 
from Tenant in accordance with the terms of this Lease, shall be deemed to 
be "Additional Rent" regardless to whom such sums may be payable.  EXCEPT AS 
OTHERWISE HEREINAFTER EXPRESSLY SET FORTH, ADDITIONAL RENT SHALL BE PAYABLE 
WITHOUT COUNTERCLAIM, DEDUCTION OR SET-OFF OF ANY NATURE WHATSOEVER.  In the 
event of Tenant's failure to make timely payment of any item of Additional 
Rent, Landlord shall have available to it all rights and remedies provided 
by this Lease and by law as for non-payment of Annual Base Rent.  The term 
"Rent" in the Lease means Annual Base Rent and Additional Rent.  Acceptance 
and/or negotiation by Landlord of Tenant's check for any portion of Rent due 
shall not be construed to be a waiver of the balance of the Rent due.

      (d)  In addition to, and not in lieu of or substitution for, the Tax 
Rent referred to in Section 4(b) hereof, Tenant shall pay before delinquency 
any and all taxes, assessments, impositions, excises, fees and other charges 
levied, assessed or imposed by governmental or quasi-governmental authority 
upon Tenant or its business operation, or based upon the use or occupancy of 
the Premises, or upon Tenant's leasehold interest, trade fixtures, 
furnishings, equipment, leasehold improvements, alterations, changes and 
additions made by Tenant, merchandise and personal property of any kind 
owned, installed or used by Tenant in, from or upon the Premises.  Tenant 
shall pay, when due and payable, any sales tax, or other tax, assessment, 
imposition, excise or other charge now or hereafter levied, assessed or 
imposed upon or against this Lease or any Rent or other sums paid or to be 
paid hereunder, or Tenant's or Landlord's interest in this Lease or any Rent 
or other sums paid or to be paid hereunder, including, without limitation, 
any use tax and/or occupancy tax imposed, assessed or levied by the Federal 
Government or any department, bureau, agency or division thereof and/or by 
the state, county or municipality in which the Property is located and/or by 
any other governmental or quasi-governmental authority having jurisdiction.  
Should the appropriate taxing authority require that any tax, assessment, 
imposition, excise or other charge referred to in this Section 4(d) be 
collected by Landlord or Landlord's agent for or on behalf of such taxing 
authority, then such tax, assessment, imposition, excise or other charge 
shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord or Landlord's agent in monthly 
installments as Additional Rent in accordance with the terms of any notice 
from Landlord or Landlord's agent to such effect.  The taxes, assessments, 
impositions, excises, fees and other charges described in this Section 4(d) 
shall be the obligation of Tenant and not Landlord or Landlord's agent.  If 
any tax, assessment, imposition, excise, fee or other charge covered by this 
Section 4(d) is imposed on Landlord or Landlord's agent, then, Tenant shall 
pay the same to Landlord, as Additional Rent hereunder, within ten (10) days 
after receipt of each bill therefor.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is 
the express intent and understanding of the parties that Tenant shall not be 
required to pay for the same item twice; therefore, Tenant's obligation 
under this Section 4(d) shall not include any component of the Tax Rent.

      5.  Net Lease.  It is the intention of Landlord and Tenant that this 
is a net lease and that the Annual Base Rent shall be absolutely net to 
Landlord and that Tenant shall be solely responsible for and pay all costs 
for the use, operation, maintenance, care and repair of the Demised Premises 
and its Proportionate Share of the same with respect to the Property.  

      6.  Insurance.  (a) Throughout the Term, Tenant shall procure and 
maintain, at its expense, a policy of comprehensive public liability 
insurance, including contractual liability coverage and automobile liability 
insurance on all owned, non-owned and hired vehicles used in connection with 
the Demised Premises (which automobile liability insurance can be secondary 
coverage), insuring Landlord, PVP-Salem Corp., Paul V. Profeta personally, 
Paul V. Profeta & Associates, Inc. (Landlord's managing agent) any party 
holding a mortgage on the Property ("Landlord's Mortgagee") and Tenant 
against such liability as Tenant is obligated to indemnify Landlord against 
pursuant to Section 24 hereof.  The initial amount of such insurance shall 
be at least $5,000,000 in combined single limit with respect to injury or 
death in any one accident, and at least $5,000,000 for damage to property.  
Such amount shall be subject to periodic increase in accordance with 
commercially reasonable standards, provided, Landlord shall not so increase 
said amount more than once every three years.  However, the amount of such 
insurance shall not limit Tenant's liability hereunder.

      (b)  Each insurance policy shall name as certificate holders and 
additional insureds Landlord, PVP-Salem Corp., Paul V. Profeta personally, 
Paul V. Profeta & Associates, Inc., and any Landlord's Mortgagee, as their 
respective interests may appear, except that the foregoing designation shall 
not be required with respect to Tenant's workers' compensation insurance.  
Each policy shall contain standard mortgagee endorsement clauses.  All 
insurance policies shall be maintained with insurance companies authorized 
to transact insurance business in the state in which the Property is located 
and holding a "General Policyholder's Rating" of A-VIII or better, as set 
forth in the most current issue of "Best's Insurance Guide".  The original 
all risk insurance policy (or copy thereof certified by the insurer) and 
certificates evidencing other insurance Tenant is required to maintain 
hereunder shall be deposited with Landlord no later than ten (10) days after 
the date of execution hereof.  Evidence of renewals of all policies shall be 
deposited with Landlord not less than thirty (30) days prior to the end of 
the term of each such policy.  Original and renewal policies or certificates 
authenticated by the insurer or its authorized representative shall be 
accompanied by proof of installment payments of the premiums as made by 
Tenant.  Such insurance shall not be subject to cancellation except after at 
least thirty (30) days prior written notice to Landlord and Landlord's 
Mortgagee by nationally reputable overnight delivery service that obtains 
written receipts of delivery (e.g., Federal Express, UPS), and any loss 
shall be payable notwithstanding any act or negligence of Tenant or 
Landlord.  If Tenant furnishes insurance hereunder under a blanket policy, 
such blanket policy shall contain an endorsement that names Landlord, PVP 
Salem Corp., Paul V. Profeta and Associates, Inc., Paul V. Profeta, 
individually, and any other designee of Landlord as certificate holders and 
additional named insured, references the Premises and guarantees a minimum 
limit available for the Premises equal to the insurance amounts required in 
this Lease.  In the event Tenant fails to procure, maintain and/or pay for 
the insurance required by this Lease, at the times and for the durations 
specified in this Lease, which failure continues uncured for ten (10) days 
after written notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant, Landlord shall have 
the right, but not the obligation, at any time and from time to time, and 
without further notice, to procure such insurance and/or pay the premiums 
for such insurance, in which event, Tenant shall repay Landlord, within 
fifteen (15) days of demand by Landlord (which demand shall be accompanied 
by receipts or other evidence of the amount paid by Landlord), as Additional 
Rent, all sums so paid by Landlord (including, but not limited to, insurance 
brokerage fees and/or insurance consulting fees) together with interest 
thereon at the Default Interest rate provided in this Lease and any 
reasonable costs or expenses incurred by Landlord in connection therewith, 
without prejudice to any other rights and remedies of Landlord under this 
Lease.

      (c)  Tenant agrees that no insurance obtained by Tenant with respect 
to the Property or this leasehold shall be written by Princeton Insurance 
Company or any subsidiary or affiliate thereof.

      (d)  Tenant shall obtain for each insurance policy procured by it 
regarding the Property or any property located thereon, an appropriate 
clause therein or endorsement thereto pursuant to which each such insurance 
company waives its subrogation rights against Landlord, PVP-Salem Corp., 
Paul V. Profeta & Associates, Inc., Paul V. Profeta personally and Tenant.  
If waiver of subrogation shall not be obtainable except at additional 
charge, Tenant shall pay the insurer's additional charge therefor.  Each 
policy evidencing the insurance to be carried by Tenant under this Lease 
shall contain a clause that such policy and the coverage evidenced thereby 
shall be primary with respect to any policies carried by Landlord, and that 
any coverage carried by Landlord shall be excess insurance.  Insurance 
proceeds payable under Tenant's policies shall be totally exhausted in 
satisfaction of any claim before any proceeds resulting from Landlord's 
policies may be utilized.

      (e)  Tenant shall comply with the reasonable requirements of any 
insurance policy carried by Landlord or Tenant covering the Property or the 
Premises, all reasonable requirements of the issuer of any such policy, and 
the applicable regulations and requirements of the National Board of Fire 
Underwriters, any applicable local board of fire underwriters, and any other 
body exercising a similar function, except if such compliance would 
materially and adversely affect Tenant's ability to utilize the Premises for 
the use described in Section 1(f) hereof.  If the premiums for any insurance 
policy maintained by Landlord applicable to the Property exceed the rate 
that would have been applicable for the permitted use of Tenant as a result 
of the failure by Tenant to comply with such requirements, or as a result of 
or in connection with the use to which the Premises are put by Tenant if 
said use is other than that expressly set forth in Section 1(f) of this 
Lease, or due to any Alterations or improvements made by Tenant and/or the 
methods or processes employed by Tenant and/or materials used by Tenant on 
or about the Premises or Property, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for such 
excess within ten (10) days after Landlord's request therefor, as Additional 
Rent.  In the event Tenant's use and occupancy of the Demised Premises 
causes any additional charge or increase in the insurance premiums on the 
Property in excess of those rates which would normally be imposed for 
insuring a Building of similar construction, and if said use and occupancy 
is other than that expressly set forth in Section 1(f) of this Lease, then 
and in that event, Tenant shall pay the amount of such additional charge or 
increase in the insurance premiums upon Landlord's demand therefor.

      7.  Utilities.  Tenant shall pay, directly to the appropriate 
supplier, the cost of all light, power, natural gas, fuel, oil, sewer 
service, sprinkler stand-by service, water, telephone, refuse disposal and 
other utilities and services supplied to the Demised Premises.  Landlord 
shall not be liable to Tenant, and Tenant's obligations under the Lease 
shall not be abated, in the event of any interruption or inadequacy of any 
utility or service supplied to the Demised Premises or Building, except to 
the extent that any such interruption or inadequacy is caused by the 
negligence or deliberate wrongful acts of Landlord.

      8.  Use of Demised Premises.  (a) The Demised Premises may only be 
used for the use set forth in Section 1(f).  The Demised Premises shall not 
be used for retail sales or any other retail use whatsoever.  No part of the 
Demised Premises may be used for warehousing or storage of any hazardous 
materials or so-called "red-labeled" materials or substances, except in 
accordance with all relevant law, rules, regulations and ordinances of all 
governmental authorities having jurisdiction.

      (b)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, Tenant 
shall not use or permit the Demised Premises to be used for (i) any unlawful 
purpose; (ii) in violation of the Building's zoning code designation as the 
same shall be in force from time to time during the term hereof; (iii) in 
violation of any certificate of occupancy covering the Demised Premises; 
(iv) any use which may constitute a public or private nuisance or make 
voidable any insurance in force relating to the Demised Premises; or (v) any 
purpose which creates or produces noxious odors, smoke, fumes, emissions, 
noise or vibrations or disturbs any other tenant of the Building in said 
tenant's peaceful enjoyment of the Property or said tenant's premises 
therein.

      (c)  Tenant shall not cause or permit any overloading of the floors of 
the Building.  Tenant shall not install any equipment or other items upon or 
through the roof, or cause openings to be made in the roof, without 
Landlord's prior written consent, which consent Landlord shall not be 
unreasonably withheld.  It shall be reasonable for Landlord to withhold its 
consent from any installation, work or improvement which would adversely 
affect the integrity of the roof or the enforceability of any roof warranty.

      (d)  No storage of any goods, equipment or materials shall be 
permitted outside the Building.

      9.  Existing Conditions.  Landlord represents and warrants to Tenant 
that to the best of Landlord's knowledge as of the date of execution hereof, 
Landlord is not in receipt of any notices of outstanding violations of any 
laws, ordinances, orders, rules, regulations and other governmental 
requirements relating to the use, condition and occupancy of the Premises or 
Property, including the Americans With Disabilities Act, all handicapped 
access related requirements, and all rules, orders, regulations and 
requirements of the Board of Fire Underwriters or insurance service office, 
or any similar body having jurisdiction over the Premises.  TENANT ACCEPTS 
THE DEMISED PREMISES IN ITS "AS IS" CONDITION AS OF THE DATE HEREOF.  Except 
as otherwise herein provided, Tenant acknowledges that Landlord has not made 
any representation as to the condition of the Demised Premises or the 
suitability of the Demised Premises for Tenant's intended use.

      10.  Maintenance and Repairs.  (a) Tenant, at its cost and expense, 
shall keep, maintain and take good care of the Premises and shall make all 
repairs to the interior non-structural portions of the Premises, including 
the ceilings, walls, doors, windows, window treatments, lighting and 
flooring, which are necessary or desirable to keep the Premises in good 
order and repair.  Upon Tenant's request, fluorescent lamps, ballasts and 
incandescent bulbs shall be replaced by Landlord at Tenant's expense.

      (b)  In making the aforesaid repairs and/or any Alterations, as said 
term is defined in Section 11 hereof, Tenant shall utilize its own employees 
or contractors reasonably satisfactory to Landlord.

      (c)  Landlord shall keep, maintain and, if necessary, replace the roof 
and structural portions of the Building and the plumbing and electrical 
service lines furnished by Landlord to the Premises and the heating, 
ventilation and air conditioning systems which were installed by Landlord 
and which service the Premises, in good order, condition and repair, and 
shall keep, maintain and, if necessary, replace all portions of the 
Property's common areas, exterior lighting, parking areas, sidewalks and 
landscaped areas in an attractive and clean condition free of dirt and 
rubbish, and clear the drives, parking areas, walkways and sidewalks of 
accumulations of snow and ice.  Any and all reasonable costs, expenses and 
fees incurred by Landlord in fulfilling its obligations under the 
immediately preceding sentence, shall be deemed, and shall be added to, 
"expenses" as said term is defined in the Operating Expense Rider attached 
hereto.

      (d)  Tenant shall not commit or suffer, and shall use all reasonable 
precaution to prevent waste, damage or injury to the Premises, Building or 
Property and the equipment thereon.

      (e)  Tenant shall use its best efforts to notify Landlord immediately 
by telephone of any damage, leak, suspicious smell or condition Tenant 
discovers or becomes aware of at or about the Premises or Property.

      (f)  If requested by Landlord, to facilitate snow removal work, Tenant 
and its employees and invitees shall park vehicles only in areas designated 
by Landlord or shall not park in any parking areas while snow removal work 
is in progress.

      (g)  In the event that Landlord shall fail to provide any utilities or 
services which the Landlord is required to provide under this Lease or shall 
fail to perform any other obligation which Landlord is required to perform 
under this Lease, including, without limitation, any maintenance obligation, 
where such failure materially adversely affects the use and occupancy by the 
Tenant of the Premises or the Tenant's operations therein, and if such 
failure shall continue for more than fifteen (15) days after notice thereof 
from Tenant without Landlord commencing to cure such failure and thereafter 
pursuing such cure to completion with all diligence, then, without 
limitation to Tenant's other rights and remedies provided hereunder or at 
law or in equity, during the pendency of such failure Tenant may, but shall 
not be obligated to, cure such failure on behalf of the Landlord and the 
Landlord shall reimburse the Tenant for the reasonable cost of curing the 
same within fifteen (15) days of Tenant's demand therefor.

      11.  Alterations and Improvements.  (a) Except as otherwise 
hereinafter expressly set forth, Tenant shall not make any alterations, 
additions or improvements to the Demised Premises, whether structural or 
non-structural (the "Alterations"), without Landlord's prior written 
consent, which consent with respect to non-structural alterations only shall 
not be unreasonably withheld.  In no event shall Alterations reduce the size 
or cubic content of the Building or reduce the value of the Demised Premises 
or Building.  Tenant shall submit to Landlord detailed plans and 
specifications stamped by Tenant's architect or licensed engineer for all 
proposed Alterations.  In the event any such Alteration is structural in 
nature or involves or impacts upon the electrical, plumbing or HVAC systems 
of the Premises and/or Property, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for all 
reasonable, third-party, out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Landlord in 
connection with Landlord's review thereof.  Prior to the commencement of any 
Alterations, Tenant shall also provide to Landlord for Landlord's prior 
approval the identity of the contractor Tenant proposes to employ to 
construct the Alterations, which approval shall not be unreasonably 
withheld.  All Alterations shall be accomplished in accordance with the 
following conditions:

            (1)  Tenant and its contractor shall execute an agreement in 
      form reasonably satisfactory to Landlord indemnifying Landlord for any 
      damage to the Building caused by the contractor and its 
      subcontractors.

            (2)  Tenant shall procure all governmental permits and 
      authorizations for the Alterations, and obtain and provide to 
      Landlord an official certificate of occupancy and/or compliance 
      upon completion of the Alterations, if appropriate.

            (3)  Tenant shall arrange for extension of the general liability 
      insurance provided for in Section 6(a) to apply to the 
      construction of the Alterations.  Further, Tenant shall procure 
      and maintain or cause its contractors and other agents to 
      procure and maintain Builders Risk Casualty Insurance in the 
      amount of the full replacement cost of the Alterations and 
      statutory Workers Compensation Insurance covering persons 
      employed in connection with the work.  All such insurance shall 
      conform to the requirements of Section 6(b).

            (4)  Tenant shall construct the Alterations in a good and 
      workmanlike manner utilizing materials of first class quality 
      and in compliance with all laws and governmental regulations.

      (b)  Within thirty (30) days of completion of the Alterations, if the 
Alterations as actually performed and constructed are different than the 
Alterations as depicted on the plans and specifications therefor, Tenant 
shall provide Landlord with "as built" sepia transparency plans (or the 
equivalent thereof) of the Alterations.

      (c)  Except for Tenant's fixtures, furniture, machinery, equipment and 
personal property, including any HVAC equipment installed by Tenant, all 
Alterations shall be the property of Landlord and shall remain on the 
Demised Premises upon termination of the Lease, or, if Landlord so requires, 
a portion of or all Alterations shall be removed by Tenant on or prior to 
the termination of the Lease and Tenant shall restore the Demised Premises 
substantially to its condition prior to such Alterations, reasonable wear 
and tear excepted.

      (d)  Tenant shall not install antennas, communication towers, 
satellite dishes or any other equipment on the roof, exterior walls or 
window sills of the Building.  Tenant shall not install cable television in 
the Premises or penetrate the wall of the Building with cables, conduits and 
exhaust vents or fans, without Landlord's prior approval, which shall not be 
unreasonably withheld.  It shall be reasonable for Landlord to withhold its 
consent from any Alteration or other work or improvement which would 
adversely affect the integrity of the roof or the enforceability of any roof 
warranty.

      (e)  It is agreed that Tenant may make non-structural, interior 
Alterations to the Premises without Landlord's prior consent, but subject to 
all of the other provisions of this Lease which govern Alterations, if the 
aggregate cost of such non-structural, interior Alterations does not exceed 
$10,000.00 and if such non-structural, interior Alterations do not affect 
the electric system of the Property and/or the HVAC system of the Property 
and/or the plumbing system of the Property and/or the structural system of 
the Property and/or the Property's fenestration and/or the exterior doors of 
the Premises and/or any of the hallways or Common Areas of the Property.

      12.  Covenant Against Liens.  Tenant shall not have any right to 
subject Landlord's interest in the Property to any mechanic's lien or any 
other lien whatsoever.  If any mechanic's lien or other lien, charge or 
order for payment of money shall be filed as a result of the act or omission 
of Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, Tenant shall cause such lien, 
charge or order to be discharged or appropriately bonded within twenty (20) 
days after notice from Landlord thereof, and Tenant shall indemnify and save 
Landlord harmless from all liabilities and costs resulting therefrom.

      13.  Signs.  Except as otherwise hereinafter expressly set forth, 
Tenant shall not place any signs on the Property without Landlord's prior 
written approval of its design, location and manner of installation, which 
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.  In no event shall any sign be 
installed on the roof or above the parapet height of the Building.  Tenant 
shall remove its signs upon termination of this Lease and restore the 
Property substantially to its condition prior to installation of the signs, 
reasonable wear and tear excepted.  Without limiting the foregoing, Landlord 
acknowledges that in connection with Tenant's present use and occupancy of 
the Premises under the Prior Lease (as said term is defined in Section 38 
hereof), Tenant has installed one or more signs on the Property.  To the 
extent such signs exist as of the date of execution hereof, Landlord agrees 
that such signs may remain upon the Property during the Term of this Lease, 
provided, Tenant, at its cost and expense shall repair such signs as 
necessary and shall remove such signs upon the expiration or termination of 
the Term of this Lease and shall repair all damage caused by such removal.

      14.  Compliance With Law.  Tenant shall take all action to conform to 
and comply with all laws, orders, regulations and/or requirements of any 
governmental authority now or hereafter applicable to Tenant's use or 
occupancy of the Premises, including, without limitation, the federal 
Occupational Safety and Health Act, and/or laws, orders, regulations or 
requirements relating to Alterations to the Premises.  Tenant shall obtain 
all permits necessary for Tenant's occupancy or use of the Demised Premises.

      15.  Environmental Law Compliance.  (a) Tenant agrees that it shall, 
at its sole cost and expense, fulfill, observe and comply with all of the 
terms and provisions of all other federal, state and local environmental 
laws now in effect or hereinafter enacted, as any of the same may be amended 
from time to time, and all rules, regulations, ordinances, orders and 
directives issued or promulgated pursuant thereto or in connection therewith 
with respect to Tenant's use of the Demised Premises.

      (b)  Tenant agrees to comply with the provisions or recommendations of 
any federal, state or local environmental law, regulation or recommendation 
applicable to Tenant or Tenant's use or occupancy of the Premises, or the 
materials or methods used by Tenant.  Tenant shall comply with any laws 
requiring trash recycling, or, if Tenant's failure to comply continues 
uncured after notice from Landlord, Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon 
Landlord's demand, as Additional Rent hereunder, any and all fines, fees, 
service charges and/or increased trash removal costs incurred by, or 
assessed or levied against, Landlord or the Property, as a result of 
Tenant's failure to so fully comply. 

      (c)  Except in accordance with all applicable laws, rules, 
regulations, ordinances and codes, Tenant agrees not to use the Premises or 
any other portion of the Property for the purpose of storing, handling, 
transferring, transporting, producing, refining or processing "hazardous 
substances" as such term is defined in any federal, state or local law or 
regulation applicable to Tenant, the Premises or Tenant's use or occupancy, 
and not to release, spill, leak, pump,  emit, pour, empty or dump any such 
"hazardous substances" onto the Premises or any other portion of the 
Property, or any adjacent property, or into the sewer or other waste 
disposal system serving the Property, or any water course on or near the 
Property or any dumpster servicing the Property, no matter where located.

      (d)  Landlord warrants and represents that to the best of Landlord's 
knowledge, the Property is free of asbestos containing materials.  Without 
limiting the foregoing, in the event asbestos containing material or 
hazardous substances are found to be present in the Building, Tenant agrees 
to vacate the Premises if requested by Landlord to permit removal of such 
materials or substances and this Lease shall not be terminated as a result 
thereof, except as hereinafter expressly set forth.  If the asbestos 
containing material or hazardous substance found to be present in the 
Building was not introduced into the Building by Tenant or Tenant's 
servants, agents, employees or contractors, and if, in connection with the 
removal of such materials or substances, Tenant must vacate all or a portion 
of the Premises, then, Tenant shall be entitled to an equitable abatement or 
reduction of Base Annual Rent and Additional Rent for the period of such 
vacation, said abatement or reduction to be based upon that portion of the 
Premises vacated by Tenant.

      (e)  Any fine, penalty, surcharge or service charge resulting from 
Tenant's failure to comply in accordance with this paragraph shall be paid 
by Tenant as Additional Rent within ten (10) days after notice thereof from 
Landlord.

      (f)  Tenant shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Landlord from 
all fines, suits, procedures, cleanup costs, claims and actions of any kind 
arising out of or in any way connected with any spills or discharges of 
hazardous substances or wastes at the Demised Premises which occur during 
the Term or elsewhere on the Property which are caused by Tenant, and from 
all fines, suits, procedures, claims and actions of any kind arising out of 
Tenant's failure to provide all information, make all submissions and take 
all actions required by any governmental agency or quasi-governmental 
agency.

      (g)  Tenant shall have no responsibility for any environmental 
conditions which predate its original use and occupancy of the Premises or 
which are caused by any person or entity other than Tenant or Tenant's 
employees or agents.  Landlord shall indemnify, defend and hold Tenant 
harmless from all fines, suits, procedures, cleanup costs, claims and 
actions of any kind, including, reasonable attorneys' fees and costs, 
arising out of or in any way connected with any release, dumping, spills or 
discharges of hazardous substances or wastes caused by Landlord or 
Landlord's employees or agents.

      (h)  Landlord's and Tenant's obligations under this Section shall 
survive the expiration of this Lease.

      16.  Landlord's Access.  Landlord and its representatives may enter 
the Demised Premises at all reasonable times upon reasonable prior notice to 
Tenant (or at any time in the event of emergency) for the purpose of 
inspecting the Demised Premises, or making any repairs, replacements or 
improvements or to show the Demised Premises to prospective purchasers, 
investors, encumbrancers, tenants or other parties, or for any other 
reasonable purpose Landlord deems necessary.  During the final twelve (12) 
months of the Term, Landlord may place customary "For Sale" or "For Lease" 
signs on the Demised Premises.  Landlord shall repair any damage to the 
property of Tenant caused by or resulting from Landlord's inspection of the 
Premises, showing of the Premises or repairs, replacements or improvements 
improperly performed by Landlord.

      17.  Assignment and Subletting.  (a) Tenant shall not assign or 
encumber Tenant's interest in this Lease, or sublet any portion of the 
Demised Premises, or grant concessions or licenses with respect to the 
Demised Premises, without Landlord's prior written consent, which consent 
shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.  If Landlord does not respond 
to Tenant's request for consent to any particular assignment or subletting 
within twenty (20) days of Landlord's receipt of all information reasonably 
requested by Landlord to evaluate said assignment or subletting, Landlord 
shall be deemed to have consented to said particular assignment or 
subletting.  The foregoing shall not be construed to impose an obligation 
upon Landlord not to unreasonably withhold or delay its consent with respect 
to any other provision of this Lease where Tenant is required to obtain 
Landlord's consent.  Except as expressly permitted by Section 17(b) directly 
below, the change of any ownership or beneficial interest of Tenant, 
including, without limitation, the transfer of any legal or beneficial 
interest in any stock, partnership interest, limited liability company 
interest or limited liability partnership interest of Tenant, or the 
admission of any new principal to any tenant entity, shall be deemed to be 
an assignment of this Lease requiring Landlord's consent.  The foregoing 
shall not apply to the sale of stock of any publicly traded company.

      (b)  Upon prior written notice to Landlord, Tenant may assign this 
Lease or sublet the Demised Premises without Landlord's consent, (i) to any 
corporation which controls, is controlled by or is under common control with 
Tenant, or (ii) to any corporation resulting from the merger of or 
consolidation with Tenant or (iii) to any entity which purchases all or 
substantially all of the assets of Tenant's laminated cable division, which 
is, as of the date of execution hereof, situated in the Premises, provided 
in any such event such assignee or sublessee shall assume all of Tenant's 
obligations under this Lease, and such assignee or sublessee shall then have 
a net worth at least equal to $5,000,000.  If the net worth is less than 
$5,000,000 then Tenant shall guarantee all the obligations of this Lease.

      (c)  If Tenant desires to assign this Lease or sublet all or any 
portion of the Demised Premises, Tenant shall submit to Landlord a written 
request for Landlord's approval thereof, setting forth the name, principal 
business address, and nature of business of the proposed assignee or 
sublessee; method of business operation, number of employees and expected 
daily visitor traffic to the Premises; copies of the assignee's or 
sublessee's last three years' independent certified public accountant-
prepared financial statements, three bank references; three business 
references; and the details of the proposed assignment or subletting, 
including a copy of the proposed assignment or sublease instrument and plans 
for any Alterations required for the proposed assignee or sublessee.  There 
shall also be furnished to Landlord a description of (i) the manner in which 
the proposed assignee's or subtenant's use of the Premises would not 
conflict with or negatively impact other tenants of the Property; and (ii) 
the manner in which the proposed assignee's or subtenant's use would not 
negatively affect the Premises, Building, Property and other tenants.  
Tenant shall also furnish any other information reasonably requested by 
Landlord.  Tenant's written request to Landlord for Landlord's consent to 
such assignment or subletting shall also contain a written option to 
Landlord to terminate this Lease as of the effective date of such proposed 
assignment or sublease.  In the event of a proposed sublease of less than a 
substantial portion of the Demised Premises, Landlord shall have the right 
to terminate this Lease with respect to the portion of the Demised Premises 
to be sublet, and this Lease shall continue with respect to the remaining 
portion of the Demised Premises.  Landlord may enter into a direct lease 
with the proposed assignee or sublessee, if Landlord so elects.  Landlord's 
acceptance of rent from a proposed assignee or sublessee shall not be 
construed to constitute its consent to an attempted assignment or 
subletting.

      (d)  In the event of a permitted assignment or subletting, Tenant 
shall remit to Landlord as Additional Rent each month during the remainder 
of the Term one-half of any rent or other sums received by Tenant from its 
assignee or sublessee in excess of the Annual Base Rent and other charges 
paid by Tenant allocable to the Demised Premises or portion thereof sublet, 
as the case may be.

      (e)  No assignment or subletting hereunder, whether or not with 
Landlord's consent (whether or not such consent is required hereunder), 
shall release Tenant from any obligations under this Lease, and Tenant shall 
continue to be primarily liable hereunder.  If Tenant's assignee or 
sublessee defaults under this Lease, Landlord may proceed directly against 
Tenant without pursuing its remedies against the assignee or sublessee as 
long as Landlord has made reasonable efforts to resolve the dispute with the 
assignee or sublessee.  Consent to one assignment or subletting shall not be 
deemed a consent to any subsequent assignment or subletting.  Landlord may 
consent to subsequent assignments or sublettings or modifications of this 
Lease, all without notice to Tenant and Tenant shall not be relieved of 
liability under this Lease.

      (f)  Within fifteen (15) days of Tenant's receipt of an invoice 
therefor, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent hereunder, in 
advance all reasonable costs, including reasonable legal fees, which 
Landlord shall incur in reviewing any proposed assignment or subletting, 
and/or architectural review fees to review any plans for Alterations in 
connection with an assignment or subletting, provided, however, that 
Landlord agrees that such costs and fees shall not exceed $1,000.00 per 
proposed assignment or per proposed sublease.

      (g)  Tenant shall not assign this Lease or sublet any portion of the 
Premises to a current or former tenant or occupant of the Building or to any 
prospective tenant who has previously communicated its space requirements to 
Landlord, or any entity in any way related to any of the foregoing.

      (h)  Intentionally Omitted.

      (i)  By executing this Lease Tenant agrees that the foregoing 
requirements for assigning this Lease or subletting the Premises are 
reasonable and necessary for Landlord to properly manage the Property.

      (j)  The acceptance by Landlord of the proposed assignee's or 
subtenant's check and/or depositing such check in Landlord's account shall 
not be construed as Landlord's consent to such proposed assignee or 
subtenant.

      18.  Casualty.  If the Building is damaged by fire or other casualty, 
and (i) the insurance proceeds actually received by Landlord on account of 
such damage are sufficient to pay for the necessary repairs, (ii) Landlord's 
Mortgagee permits Landlord to utilize the insurance proceeds to repair such 
damage, and (iii) Landlord represents that the Building can be substantially 
repaired within six (6) months after the date of such casualty, this Lease 
shall remain in effect and Landlord shall substantially repair the damage 
within six (6) months after the date of such casualty, subject to delays 
beyond Landlord's control.  If any of the foregoing conditions requiring 
Landlord to repair the Building is not met, Landlord, by notice to Tenant 
given within one hundred twenty days of the date of casualty, said time 
period to be strictly of the essence, may elect either to (i) terminate this 
Lease; or (ii) repair the damage as soon as reasonably possible, in which 
event this Lease shall remain in full force and effect (but Tenant shall 
then have the right to terminate this Lease if the Property cannot be 
substantially repaired within six (6) months after the date of casualty).  
Tenant's notification of termination pursuant to the immediately preceding 
sentence, if any, shall be required within thirty (30) days after the date 
of said notice of election from Landlord.  Time shall be strictly of the 
essence with regard to Tenant's notification of termination.  If, for any 
reason whatsoever, Landlord has not received Tenant's aforesaid written 
notification of termination within the aforesaid thirty (30) day period, 
then, Tenant shall automatically and irrevocably be deemed to have waived 
its said right of termination and Landlord's notice of election shall be 
deemed accepted and approved by Tenant.  If this Lease shall remain in full 
force and effect following a casualty, and if said casualty or the repair 
and/or restoration of the damage caused thereby shall render the Premises 
untenantable, in whole or in part, then and in those events, there shall be 
an equitable abatement of Annual Base Rent and Additional Rent based upon 
the portion of the Premises rendered untenantable, from the date the 
Premises (or said portion thereof) became untenantable until the date that 
the Premises (or said portion thereof) becomes tenantable.  Tenant waives 
the protection of any law which grants a tenant the right to terminate a 
lease in the event of the destruction of a leased property, and agrees that 
the provisions of this paragraph shall govern in the event of any 
destruction of the Premises and/or Building and/or Property.  Landlord shall 
not be required to repair improvements or alterations to the Property made 
by Tenant, except to the extent, if any, that any insurance proceeds 
received by Landlord specifically compensate Landlord for the value of any 
such improvements or alterations.

      19.  Condemnation.  If more than twenty-five (25%) percent of the Land 
and/or Building shall be taken under the power of eminent domain or sold 
under the threat thereof ("Condemnation") and Tenant's use of the Demised 
Premises is materially adversely affected, this Lease shall terminate on the 
date on which title to the Demised Premises or portion thereof shall vest in 
the condemning authority.  If more than 25% of the Demised Premises is taken 
by Condemnation and Tenant's use of the remainder of the Demised Premises, 
as determined by Tenant in good faith, shall not be reasonably adequate for 
the operation of its business thereof, then, Tenant shall have the option of 
terminating this Lease on the date on which title to the condemned portion 
shall vest in the condemning authority; provided, that Tenant must exercise 
said option by written notice to Landlord within thirty (30) days of the 
date that Tenant first receives notice of the Condemnation.  Time shall be 
strictly of the essence with regard to Tenant's notice of termination.  If, 
for any reason whatsoever, Landlord has not received Tenant's aforesaid 
written notice within said thirty (30) day period, Tenant shall be deemed to 
have conclusively elected to continue this Lease with respect to that 
portion of the Demised Premises not taken.  With respect to any Condemnation 
which does not result in the termination of this Lease, this Lease shall 
remain in effect as to the portion of the Demised Premises not taken, 
Landlord shall restore the improvements not taken as nearly as reasonably 
practicable to their condition prior to the Condemnation as soon as 
reasonably practicable following receipt of all condemnation proceeds or 
awards, and the Annual Base Rent shall be reduced proportionately in 
accordance with the reduction in the square foot area of the Demised 
Premises following the Condemnation.  Landlord shall be entitled to receive 
the entire award in any Condemnation proceeding relating to the Demised 
Premises, except that Tenant may assert a separate claim to an award for its 
moving expenses and relocation expenses and for fixtures and personal 
property installed by Tenant at its expense, provided Tenant's claim does 
not in any way interfere with or diminish Landlord's award.  It is 
understood that Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord for the value of 
the unexpired Term of this Lease or any options granted under this Lease.  
Landlord shall not be required to restore improvements or alterations to the 
Demised Premises made by Tenant, except to the extent, if any, that any 
condemnation award received by Landlord specifically compensates Landlord 
for the value of any such improvements or alterations.

      20.  Surrender of Demised Premises.  Upon termination of the Lease, 
Tenant shall surrender the Demised Premises to Landlord broom clean, and in 
good order and condition, except for ordinary wear and tear, and damage by 
casualty which Tenant was not obligated to remedy under Section 18.  Tenant 
shall remove its machinery and equipment and repair any damage to the 
Demised Premises caused by such removal.  Tenant shall not remove any power 
wiring or power panels, lighting or lighting fixtures, wall coverings, 
blinds or other window coverings, carpets or other floor coverings, heaters 
or air conditioners or fencing or gates, except if installed by Tenant and 
required by Landlord to be removed from the Demised Premises.  All personal 
property of Tenant remaining on the Demised Premises after Tenant's 
surrender of the Premises shall be deemed abandoned and at Landlord's 
election may either be retained by Landlord or may be removed from the 
Demised Premises at Tenant's expense.  Any item required by Landlord to be 
removed by Tenant which Tenant fails to remove from the Premises may be 
removed by Landlord and the reasonable cost of removal may be deducted from 
the Security Deposit.  Said deduction from the Security Deposit shall not be 
deemed a waiver of any other right Landlord may have hereunder or under law.  
The foregoing shall not be construed to prohibit Tenant from removing its 
movable trade fixtures and non-structural improvements, including, HVAC 
purchased and installed at Tenant's expense, it being understood and agreed 
that such movable trade fixtures and non-structural improvements, including, 
HVAC purchased and installed at Tenant's expense, shall be removed by 
Tenant, at Tenant's cost and expense, at or prior to the expiration or 
earlier termination of the Term of this Lease.  Any damage to the Premises 
and/or the Property caused by said removal shall be repaired by Tenant at 
its cost and expense.

      If during the last one hundred eighty (180) days of the Term, Tenant 
shall have removed all or substantially all of Tenant's property and all of 
its personnel from the Premises, Landlord may at any time thereafter enter, 
alter, renovate and redecorate the Premises without any reduction or 
abatement of the Tenant's Rent or incurring any liability for any 
compensation to Tenant or adverse effect on this Lease or Tenant's 
obligations hereunder.  If Landlord commences alterations, renovations or 
redecorations to the Premises, Tenant shall not thereafter occupy the 
Premises.

      21.  Holdover. In the event Tenant remains in possession of the 
Demised Premises after the expiration of the term of this Lease (the 
"Holdover Period"), in addition to any damages to which Landlord may be 
entitled or other remedies Landlord may have by law, Tenant shall pay to 
Landlord a rental for the Holdover Period at the rate of twice the sum of 
(i) the Annual Base Rent payable during the last lease year of the term, 
plus (ii) all items of Additional Rent and other charges with respect to the 
Demised Premises payable by Tenant during the last lease year of the Term.  
Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to give Tenant any right to remain 
in possession of the Demised Premises after the expiration of the Term of 
this Lease.  The sum due to Landlord hereunder shall be payable by Tenant 
upon demand.

      22.  Events of Default; Remedies.  (a)(1)  Tenant shall be in default 
upon the occurrence of one or more of the following events (an "Event of 
Default"):  (i) Tenant fails to pay any installment of Annual Base Rent, 
Additional Rent or any other sum of money required to be paid by Tenant 
hereunder within seven (7) days of the date when due, provided, however, 
that solely with respect to the first occurrence of such failure to pay 
within any twelve (12) month period, Landlord shall give Tenant written 
notice of such failure and Tenant shall not be deemed in default unless 
Tenant fails to cure such failure within five (5) business days of said 
notice; it being expressly understood and agreed that Landlord shall not be 
required to give any notice of failure to pay with respect to the second 
occurrence of nonpayment within any twelve (12) month period or with respect 
to any subsequent occurrences of nonpayment within said twelve (12) month 
period; (ii) Tenant fails to perform any of Tenant's non-monetary 
obligations under this Lease within the Non-Monetary Grace Period (as said 
term is hereinafter defined) (provided that if more than the Non-Monetary 
Grace Period is required to complete such performance, Tenant shall not be 
in default if Tenant commences such performance within said Non-Monetary 
Grace Period and thereafter diligently pursues its completion); (iii) Tenant 
abandons the Demised Premises for thirty (30) days or more; or (iv) Tenant 
makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or if a petition for 
adjudication of bankruptcy or for reorganization is filed by or against 
Tenant and is not dismissed within ninety (90) days, or if a receiver or 
trustee is appointed for a substantial part of Tenant's property and such 
appointment is not vacated within ninety (90) days; or (v) Tenant assigns 
all or any portion of its interest in this Lease, sublets all or any portion 
of the Premises or transfers or allows the transfer of any legal interest or 
beneficial interest in Tenant, except as otherwise expressly permitted by 
Section 17 of this Lease.

            (2)  With respect to any particular failure by Tenant to perform 
      any of Tenant's non-monetary obligations under this Lease, the "Non-
      Monetary Grace Period" shall be a period of thirty (30) days from the 
      date of written notice of said particular failure from Landlord, 
      provided, however, if said particular failure (i) threatens or 
      jeopardizes the integrity of the structure of the Building or any one 
      or more of the electrical, plumbing, mechanical and/or HVAC systems of 
      the Building or (ii) adversely affects the ability of any other tenant 
      or occupant of the Building to enjoy said tenant's or occupant's 
      premises at the Building or (iii) jeopardizes or threatens the safety, 
      health or welfare of any occupants of the Building or of any other 
      parties lawfully entitled to be upon the Property or Building, 
      including, without limitation, Landlord's agents, employees and 
      contractors or (iv) gives rise to the existence of an emergency 
      situation, then and in any of said events, the Non-Monetary Grace 
      Period shall be a period of ten (10) days after written notice of said 
      particular failure from Landlord.

      (b)  On the occurrence of an Event of Default, without limiting any 
other right or remedy Landlord may have, Landlord may without notice or 
demand:

            (i)  Declare the entire amount of unpaid Annual Base Rent and 
      Additional Rent for the balance of the Term immediately due and 
      payable.

            (ii)  Terminate this Lease and Tenant's right to possession of 
      the Demised Premises by any lawful means, in which event Tenant shall 
      immediately surrender possession of the Demised Premises to Landlord.  
      At its option, Landlord may occupy the Demised Premises or cause the 
      Demised Premises to be redecorated, altered, divided, consolidated 
      with other adjoining property, or otherwise prepared for reletting, 
      and may relet the Demised Premises or any part thereof for a term or 
      terms to expire prior to, at the same time or subsequent to the 
      original Expiration Date, and receive the rent therefor, applying the 
      sums received first to the payment of such reasonable expenses as 
      Landlord may have incurred in connection with the recovery of 
      possession, preparing for reletting and the reletting itself, 
      including brokerage and attorneys' fees, and then to the payment of 
      damages in amounts equal to the rent hereunder and to the cost and 
      expense of performance of the other covenants of Tenant under this 
      Lease.  Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord damages equal to the rent and 
      other sums payable by Tenant under this Lease, reduced by the net 
      proceeds of the reletting, if any, as ascertained from time to time.  
      In reletting the Premises, Landlord may grant commercially reasonable 
      rent concessions, and Tenant shall not be entitled to any credit 
      therefor.  Tenant shall not be entitled to any surplus resulting from 
      any reletting.  If Landlord elects to occupy the Premises or any part 
      thereof, there shall be allowed against Tenant's obligation for rent 
      during the period of Landlord's occupancy, the reasonable value of 
      such occupancy, not to exceed in any event the rent payable hereunder 
      for such portion of the Premises.  Such occupancy shall not be 
      construed as a release of Tenant's liability hereunder.

            (iii)  Permit Tenant to remain in possession of the Demised 
      Premises, in which event this Lease shall continue in effect.  
      Landlord shall be entitled to enforce all of Landlord's rights and 
      remedies under this Lease, including the right to receive the rent as 
      it becomes due under this Lease.

            (iv)  Pursue any other remedy now or hereafter available under 
      the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Demised Premises is located.

      (c)  The remedies available to Landlord herein specified are not 
intended to be exclusive and are not intended to prevent Landlord from 
exercising any other remedy or means of redress to which Landlord may be 
lawfully entitled.  In addition to other remedies provided in this Lease, 
Landlord shall be entitled to restraint by injunction of any violation or 
threatened violation by Tenant of any of the provisions of this Lease.  
Landlord's exercise of any right or remedy shall not prevent Landlord from 
exercising any other right or remedy.  Except as otherwise herein expressly 
set forth, Landlord shall not be obligated to give Tenant any notice of an 
Event of Default in order to enforce its remedies hereunder.

      (d)  To the extent permitted by law, Tenant, for itself and any person 
claiming through or under Tenant, waives any equity or right of redemption 
provided by any law.

      (e)  Tenant agrees to pay as Additional Rent, upon Landlord's demand 
therefor, all reasonable attorneys' fees, court costs and other reasonable 
expenses incurred by Landlord in the enforcement of any of the obligations 
or agreements of Tenant under this Lease.

      (f)  Landlord shall use good faith efforts to relet the Premises and 
to otherwise mitigate damages caused by Tenant's defaults.

      23.  Service Fee; Interest; Legal Fees.  (a) Tenant's failure to make 
prompt and timely payment of Annual Base Rent, Additional Rent and/or any 
other payments required under this Lease may cause Landlord to incur 
unanticipated costs, which are impractical to ascertain.  Therefore, if 
Landlord does not receive any payment of Annual Base Rent, Additional Rent 
or other sums due from Tenant to Landlord within five (5) days after it 
becomes due, Tenant shall pay Landlord as Additional Rent a service fee 
equal to five (5%) percent of the overdue amount (the "Service Fee").  This 
service fee shall be in addition to reasonable costs incurred by Landlord in 
enforcing this Lease and in addition to the Default Interest set forth 
below.  Landlord agrees that solely with respect to the first incident of 
non-payment/late payment within any twelve (12) month period during the Term 
of this Lease, Landlord shall not impose the Service Fee unless such non-
payment/late payment is not cured within five (5) days of written notice 
thereof from Landlord to Tenant (which written notice shall be deemed 
sufficient if transmitted by hand delivery to the Premises or by facsimile 
or otherwise delivered in accordance with Section 35 hereof).  The foregoing 
shall not be construed to require Landlord to give any notice of any nature 
whatsoever with respect non-payment or late payment of Rent; nor shall the 
foregoing be construed to limit any of Landlord's rights under Section 22 of 
this Lease.  The foregoing is intended solely to limit Landlord's right to 
impose the Service Fee and then only with respect to the first incident of 
non-payment/late payment within any twelve (12) month period.

      (b)  Any amount owed by Tenant to Landlord which is not paid when due 
shall bear interest at the rate of eighteen (18%) percent per annum 
("Default Interest") from the due date of such amount.  The payment of 
Default Interest on such amounts shall not extend the due date of any amount 
owed.  If the interest rate specified in this Lease shall exceed the rate 
permitted by law, the Default Interest shall be deemed to be the maximum 
legal interest rate permitted by law.

      24.  Indemnification.  (a) Tenant shall indemnify and hold harmless 
Landlord, PVP-Salem Corp., Paul V. Profeta & Associates, Inc. and Paul V. 
Profeta personally from and against all liability, claims or costs, 
including reasonable legal fees and court costs, arising from (i) Tenant's 
use of the Demised Premises; (ii) any breach of this Lease by Tenant; (iii) 
any negligent or wrongful act or omission of Tenant; (iv) any injury to 
person or damage to property occurring on or about the Demised Premises; (v) 
any injury to person or damage to property occurring on the Property 
resulting from any negligence or misconduct of Tenant or any of its 
employees or agents; or (vi) any injury to the person of, or damage to the 
property of, any employee, servant, agent, guest, invitee, assignee, 
sublessee, customer or contractor of Tenant occurring on or about any part 
of the Premises or, occurring on or about any part of the Property, but then 
solely to the extent caused by the negligence or wrongful act of Tenant, 
except to the extent that any such liability, claim or cost arises as a 
result of Landlord's negligence or deliberate wrongful acts.  Tenant shall 
defend Landlord, PVP-Salem Corp., Paul V. Profeta & Associates, Inc. and 
Paul V. Profeta personally against any such claim of a third party, with 
counsel reasonably acceptable to Landlord, provided, that counsel provided 
by Tenant's insurer shall be deemed acceptable to Landlord.  The obligation 
of Tenant under this Section 24 shall survive expiration or earlier 
termination of the Term of this Lease.

      (b)  Except as otherwise in this Lease provided, Landlord shall 
indemnify and hold Tenant harmless from and against all liability, claims or 
costs, including reasonable fees and court costs, arising from (i) any 
breach of this Lease by Landlord; or (ii) any negligent or deliberate 
wrongful act or omission of Landlord;  or (iii) any injury to person or 
damage to property occurring on or about the Premises or Property to the 
extent caused by Landlord's negligence or deliberate wrongful acts, except 
to the extent that any such liability, claim or cost arises as a result of 
Tenant's negligence or deliberate wrongful acts.  Landlord shall defend 
Tenant against any such claim of a third party with counsel reasonably 
acceptable to Tenant, provided, that counsel provided by Landlord's insurer 
shall be deemed acceptable to Tenant.  The obligation of Landlord under this 
Section 24 shall survive expiration or earlier termination of the Term of 
this Lease.

      25.  Landlord's Right to Cure Tenant's Default.  If Tenant fails to 
make any payment or perform any act on its part to be made or performed, 
which failure continues uncured beyond any applicable notice and/or cure 
period otherwise provided in this Lease, if any, then Landlord, without 
waiving or releasing Tenant from such obligation, may make such payment or 
perform such act on Tenant's part, and the costs incurred by Landlord in 
connection with such payment or performance, together with Default Interest 
thereon, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord as Additional Rent within five 
(5) days of Landlord's demand therefor.

      26.  Waiver of Liability.  Landlord shall not be liable for any injury 
or damage to the business, equipment, merchandise or other property of 
Tenant or any of Tenant's employees or invitees or any other person on or 
about the Property, resulting from any cause, including, but not limited to:  
(i) fire, steam, electricity, water, gas or rain; (ii) leakage, obstruction 
or other defects of pipes, sprinklers, wires, plumbing, air conditioning, 
boilers or lighting fixtures; or (iii) condition of the Property, except to 
the extent that any such injury or damage results from Landlord's negligence 
or deliberate wrongful acts.

      27.  Force Majeure.  If either party (the "performing party") is 
unable to perform any of its obligations or to supply or is delayed in 
supplying any service expressly or impliedly to be supplied or is unable to 
make or is delayed in making any repair, additions, alterations or 
decorations, or is unable to supply or is delayed in supplying any equipment 
or fixtures, or is unable to provide access to the Premises, Building and/or 
Property, due to events beyond the performing party's control, the time 
provided to the performing party for performing such obligations shall be 
extended by a period of time equal to the duration of such events, and the 
other party hereto shall not be entitled to any claim against the performing 
party by reason thereof, and the obligation of the other party hereto to pay 
rent and perform all its other obligations under this Lease shall not be 
affected, impaired or excused thereby.  Events beyond the performing party's 
control include, but are not limited to, acts of God, war, civil commotion, 
labor disputes, strikes, casualty, labor or material shortages, government 
regulation or restriction, weather conditions, or utility power surge, 
outage or interruption.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, it 
is expressly understood that the foregoing provisions of this Section 26 
shall not apply to, and shall not excuse or postpone, Tenant's obligations 
under this Lease to pay Annual Base Rent, Additional Rent and/or any other 
amount, cost, fees or charge due and payable by Tenant under this Lease.

      (b)  Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant nor shall Tenant be 
entitled to any abatement or reduction of rent, in the event of the 
suspension, interruption, failure or inadequacy of any of the services to be 
provided by Landlord pursuant to this Lease, to the extent that such 
suspension, interruption, failure or inadequacy is caused by malfunction, 
accident, breakdown, repairs, replacement, strikes, inability to obtain 
supplies, governmental regulations or restrictions, actions of utility 
companies or any other cause beyond Landlord's reasonable control.

      28.  Notice of Landlord's Default.  Tenant shall give to Landlord and 
any ground lessor and/or Landlord's Mortgagee whose name and address have 
been furnished to Tenant, written notice of any failure by Landlord to 
perform any of Landlord's obligations under this Lease.  Except as may be 
otherwise expressly set forth in this Lease, Landlord shall not be in 
default under this Lease unless Landlord (or such ground lessor or 
Landlord's Mortgagee) fails to cure such non-performance within thirty (30) 
days after receipt of Tenant's notice.  If more than thirty (30) days are 
required to cure such non-performance, Landlord shall not be in default if 
such cure is commenced within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter 
diligently pursued to completion.

      29.  Landlord's Liability Limited.  If the Landlord or any successor 
in interest or assignee of Landlord shall be an individual, tenancy in 
common, joint tenancy, general or limited partnership, limited liability 
company, limited liability partnership, joint venture, trust or other 
entity, there shall be no personal liability of such individual, tenancy in 
common, joint tenancy, general or limited partnership, limited liability 
company, limited liability partnership, joint venture, trust or other 
entity, or parties to the tenancy in common, joint tenancy, general or 
limited partnership, limited liability company, limited liability 
partnership, or joint venture or other entity, or the trustees or 
beneficiaries of the trust, in connection with this Lease.  Tenant agrees to 
look solely to the interest of Landlord in the Property for the collection 
of any judgment or other judicial process requiring the payment of money by 
Landlord in the event of any default or breach by Landlord with respect to 
this Lease or in any way relating to the Demised Premises.  No other assets 
of Landlord or any principal, agent or employee of Landlord shall be subject 
to levy, execution or other procedures for the satisfaction of Tenant's 
remedies.

      30.  Estoppel Statement; Financial Statement.  (a) Upon Landlord's 
reasonable request, Tenant shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to 
Landlord a written statement certifying:  (i) the Commencement Date; (ii) 
the Expiration Date; (iii) that this Lease is in full force and effect (if 
such is the case) and unmodified (or if modified, stating the 
modifications); (iv) the last date of payment of the Annual Base Rent, 
Additional Rent and other charges and the time period covered by each 
payment; (v) that Landlord is not in default under this Lease (or, if 
Landlord is claimed to be in default, stating the nature of the default); 
and (vi) such other matters as may be reasonably required by Landlord, 
Landlord's Mortgagee or any prospective mortgage lender.  Tenant shall 
deliver such statement to Landlord within fifteen (15) days after Landlord's 
request.  Any such statement may be given to and relied upon by Landlord's 
Mortgagee, any prospective mortgage lender or other encumbrancer of the 
property or any prospective purchaser of the Property.

      (b)  Within twenty (20) days after Landlord's request, Tenant shall 
deliver to Landlord certified true copies of Tenant's most recent Form 10-Q 
and most recent Form 10-K, or, if Tenant is not then a publicly traded 
company, such financial statements prepared by an independent certified 
public accountant as are reasonably required to verify the net worth of 
Tenant.  Any such statement may be given by Landlord to any Landlord's 
Mortgagee or prospective encumbrancer of the Property.  Tenant represents to 
Landlord that each such financial statement shall be a true and accurate 
statement as of the date of such statement, which may be relied upon by 
Tenant, Tenant's Mortgagee and any prospective encumbrancer of the Property.

      31.  Quiet Enjoyment.  (a) Landlord covenants and warrants to Tenant 
that Landlord has full right and lawful authority to enter into this Lease 
for the Term of this Lease, including any Extension Term provided in the 
Extension Option Rider hereto.  Landlord further covenants and warrants to 
Tenant that Landlord is lawfully seized of the Leased Premises and has good 
and marketable title thereto, subject to existing tenancies and all liens, 
encroachments, encumbrances, restrictions, conditions, reservations, 
easements and other matters of record and subject further to the lien of 
real estate taxes due but not yet payable.

      (b)  Landlord covenants that as long as Tenant pays the Annual Base 
Rent and Additional Rent and performs its other obligations under this 
Lease, Tenant shall peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Demised 
Premises for the term provided by this Lease without hinderance or 
interruption by Landlord or any other person or persons lawfully or 
equitably claiming by, through or under Landlord, subject to the provisions 
of this Lease.

      (c)  Landlord reserves to itself such access and utility easements 
over, under and across the Demised Premises as may be required by Landlord 
from time to time in connection with the ownership, use or operation of any 
other property of Landlord or any affiliated party of Landlord.  No such 
easement shall materially interfere with Tenant's use of the Demised 
Premises or adversely affect Tenant's business operations at the Premises.

      32.  Subordination; Attornment.  (a) Subject to, and in accordance 
with, the terms provided in Section 32(b) - 32(d) below, this Lease is 
subject and subordinate to any ground lease or mortgage which may now or 
hereafter encumber the Property, and any renewals, modifications, 
consolidations, replacements or extensions thereof.

      (b)  The provisions of this Section 32(b) shall apply only to Parlex 
Corporation and  only so long as Parlex Corporation uses and occupies the 
Premises.  With respect to any party which holds a mortgage on the Property 
as of the date of execution hereof ("existing mortgagee"), within ten (10) 
days of the date of execution of this Lease by both Landlord and Tenant, 
Landlord shall request that said existing mortgagee enter into a 
subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement ("SNDA") with 
Landlord and Parlex Corporation, which SNDA shall, inter alia, contain a 
provision which states that in the event of the foreclosure of said existing 
mortgagee's mortgage, said existing mortgagee will recognize this Lease and 
will not disturb Parlex Corporation in its possession of the Premises, nor 
disturb Tenant's right to enjoyment of the terms, conditions and covenants 
under the Lease, unless Parlex Corporation has committed an act of default 
which, under the terms of this Lease, would permit Landlord to terminate 
this Lease (the foregoing provision is hereinafter referred to as the "Non-
disturbance Provision").  If, within forty-five (45) days of the execution 
of this Lease by Landlord and Tenant, Landlord's existing mortgagee delivers 
(or causes to be delivered) to Landlord and Parlex Corporation, a form of 
SNDA which contains the Non-disturbance Provision as hereinabove 
specifically described, which form said mortgagee is prepared to enter into, 
then and in that event, Landlord shall have no further obligation with 
respect to obtaining a SNDA from said existing mortgagee and Parlex 
Corporation shall have no right to terminate this Lease or modify its 
obligations hereunder, even if said SNDA is thereafter not entered into 
(unless the reason said SNDA is not entered into is Landlord's or said 
existing mortgagee's refusal to execute same, provided, that the foregoing 
shall not be construed to require either Landlord or said existing mortgagee 
to agree to any modifications to said existing mortgagee's form of SNDA).  
If, within forty-five (45) days of the execution of this Lease by Landlord 
and Tenant, Landlord's existing mortgagee does not deliver (or cause to be 
delivered) to Landlord and Parlex Corporation a form of SNDA which contains 
the Non-disturbance Provision as hereinabove specifically described, which 
form said mortgagee is prepared to enter into, then and in that event, 
Parlex Corporation may elect to terminate this Lease by written notice to 
Landlord, provided such written notice is received by Landlord no later than 
the fifty-fifth (55th) day following the date of execution of this Lease by 
Landlord and Tenant.  Time shall be strictly of the essence with regard to 
Tenant's notice of termination.  If such written notice of termination is 
not received by Landlord on or before said fifty-fifth (55th) day, Parlex 
Corporation shall automatically and conclusively be deemed to have 
irrevocably waived the right of termination set forth in this Section 32(b).

      (c)  The provisions of this Section 32(c) shall apply only to Parlex 
Corporation and only so long as Parlex Corporation uses and occupies the 
Premises.  With respect to any future mortgagee of the Property, Landlord 
shall request that said future mortgagee enter into a SNDA with Landlord and 
Parlex Corporation, which SNDA shall contain a Non-disturbance Provision, as 
hereinabove specifically described, which form said mortgagee is prepared to 
enter into.  If, within forty-five (45) days of the date on which said 
future mortgagee first acquires its mortgage on the Property, said future 
mortgagee delivers (or causes to be delivered) to Landlord and Parlex 
Corporation a form of SNDA which contains the Non-disturbance Provision, as 
hereinabove specifically described, which form said mortgagee is prepared to 
enter into, then and in that event, Landlord shall have no further 
obligation with respect to obtaining a SNDA from said future mortgagee and 
Parlex Corporation shall have no right to terminate this Lease or modify its 
obligations hereunder, even if said SNDA is thereafter not entered into 
(unless the reason said SNDA is not entered into is Landlord's or said 
future mortgagee's refusal to execute same, provided, that the foregoing 
shall not be construed to require either Landlord or said future mortgagee 
to agree to any modifications to said future mortgagee's form of SNDA).  If, 
within said forty-five (45) day period  Landlord's future mortgagee does not 
deliver (or cause to be delivered) to Landlord and Parlex Corporation a form 
of SNDA which contains the Non-disturbance Provision, then and in that 
event, Parlex Corporation may elect to terminate this Lease by written 
notice to Landlord, provided such written notice is received by Landlord no 
later than the tenth (10th) day following the expiration of said forty-five 
(45) day period.  Time shall be strictly of the essence with regard to 
Tenant's notice of termination.  If such written notice of termination is 
not received by Landlord on or before said tenth (10th) day, Parlex 
Corporation shall automatically and conclusively be deemed to have 
irrevocably waived the right of termination set forth in this Section 32(c).

      (d)  The provisions of this Section 32(d) apply to all individuals and 
entities other than Parlex Corporation, who/which may at any time during the 
term hereof be deemed the Tenant hereunder.  With respect to any existing or 
future mortgagee of the Property, Landlord shall use good-faith efforts to 
have said mortgagee enter into a SNDA with Landlord and any such individual 
or entity.  Landlord shall not be required to make more than one good faith 
effort from each mortgagee.  It is expressly understood and agreed that the 
respective rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall in no way 
whatsoever be nullified, canceled, diminished, limited, enlarged, expanded 
or otherwise modified or affected by the refusal of one or more of such 
mortgagees to enter into a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment 
agreement and/or by the requirement by one or more of said mortgagees that 
the parties utilize said mortgagee's particular form of subordination, non-
disturbance and attornment agreement.

      (e)  If Landlord's interest in the Property is acquired by any ground 
lessor, Landlord's Mortgagee, or purchaser at a foreclosure sale, Tenant 
shall attorn to the transferee of or successor to Landlord's interest in the 
Property and recognize such transferee or successor as landlord under this 
Lease.  Such transferee or successor shall not be liable for any act or 
omission of any prior landlord, or be subject to any offsets or defenses 
which Tenant might have against any prior landlord, or be bound by any Rent 
which Tenant might have paid for more than the current month to any prior 
landlord, or be liable for any security deposit under this Lease unless 
actually transferred to such transferee or successor.

      (f)  Tenant agrees that this Lease shall be modified in accordance 
with the reasonable request of any institutional Landlord's Mortgagee, 
provided no such modification changes the business terms of this Lease.

      (g)  The foregoing provisions shall be self-operative and no further 
instrument or act on the part of Tenant shall be necessary to effect the 
same.  Tenant shall nevertheless sign and deliver any document necessary or 
appropriate to evidence the subordination, attornment or agreement above 
provided within twenty (20) days after Landlord's request therefor.  Tenant 
further agrees to execute and/or deliver within twenty (20) days after 
Landlord's request therefor any other documents reasonably required by 
Landlord's Mortgagee in connection with the financing or refinancing of the 
Property, or insuring the Property.

      33.  Brokerage.  Each party represents to the other that it did not 
deal with any real estate broker in connection with this Lease, other than 
the real estate broker (if any) whose identity is set forth in Section 1(h).  
The commission of such broker (if any) shall be paid by the party as set 
forth in Section 1(h).  Each party shall indemnify and hold the other 
harmless from any claim for a commission or other fee made by any broker 
with whom the indemnifying party has dealt, other than the broker identified 
in Section 1(h).

      34.  Security Deposit.  Pursuant to the Prior Lease, as said term is 
hereinafter defined, Tenant has deposited with Landlord the sum of 
$15,744.13 to be held as the security deposit under said Prior Lease (the 
"Prior Security").  Tenant hereby expressly agrees that on the Commencement 
Date the Prior Security shall be deemed returned to Tenant pursuant to the 
Prior Lease and immediately thereafter redeposited with Landlord.  The Prior 
Security shall be held by Landlord as the security deposit under this Lease 
(the "Security Deposit").  Landlord shall have the right to use the Security 
Deposit to cure any default of Tenant hereunder, including, but not limited 
to,payment of Annual Base Rent, Additional Rent, Service Fees or other debts 
of Tenant due Landlord, or repair or restoration of the Demised Premises.  
If Landlord uses any part of the Security Deposit, Tenant shall restore the 
Security Deposit to its full amount within twenty (20) days after Landlord's 
demand therefor.  Provided Tenant has fully complied with all of the terms 
of this Lease, Landlord shall return the Security Deposit to Tenant without 
interest on the date thirty (30) days after the surrender of the Demised 
Premises by Tenant.  Landlord may deliver the Security Deposit to the 
purchaser or other transferee of Landlord's interest in the Property in the 
event the Property is sold or otherwise transferred, and, upon written 
notice of said transfer with copies of the documentation evidencing said 
transfer (which written notice is joined in, or verified by, said purchaser 
or transferee), Landlord shall be discharged from any further liability with 
respect to the Security Deposit.

      35.  Notices.  (a)  All notices in connection with this Lease or the 
Demised Premises shall be in writing and shall be sent by reliable overnight 
delivery service which requires a signed delivery slip (e.g., Federal 
Express).  Notices to Landlord shall be delivered to the address specified 
in Section 1(b).  Notices to Tenant shall be delivered to 145 Milk Street, 
Methuen, MA 01844.  All notices shall be effective upon delivery or 
attempted delivery (provided such attempted delivery occurs on a business 
day) in accordance with this provision.  Either party may change its notice 
address upon written notice to the other party given in accordance with this 
provision.

      (b)  Without limiting the foregoing, whenever in this Lease Landlord 
is required or desires to give notice to Tenant, such notice shall be deemed 
given by Landlord if such notice is sent to Tenant by the office of (i) 
Landlord, (ii) Paul V. Profeta & Associates, Inc. or (iii) Landlord's 
Counsel.  As used herein, Landlord's Counsel shall mean any attorney who is 
a member of or associated with the firm of Lasser Hochman, L.L.C, 75 
Eisenhower Parkway, Roseland, New Jersey or such other attorney or law firm 
as Landlord may notify Tenant of by notice given in accordance with this 
Section 35.

      36.  Memorandum of Lease.  Tenant shall not record this Lease or any 
memorandum thereof.

      37.  INTENTIONALLY OMITTED.

      38.  No Other Agreements.  (a) THIS LEASE SETS FORTH ALL THE  
PROMISES, INDUCEMENTS, AGREEMENTS, CONDITIONS AND UNDERSTANDINGS, BETWEEN 
LANDLORD AND TENANT RELATIVE TO THE DEMISED PREMISES AND THERE ARE NO 
PROMISES, AGREEMENTS, CONDITIONS OR UNDERSTANDINGS, EITHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, 
EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, BETWEEN THEM OTHER THAN AS HEREIN SET FORTH.  WITHOUT 
LIMITING THE FOREGOING, NO PRIOR DRAFTS OF THIS LEASE OR LETTERS OR OTHER 
COMMUNICATIONS, WRITTEN OR ORAL, BETWEEN PRINCIPALS, AGENTS OR EMPLOYEES OF 
LANDLORD OR TENANT SHALL BE EFFECTIVE TO CONSTITUTE A MODIFICATION OF THIS 
LEASE.  THIS LEASE MAY BE MODIFIED ONLY BY A WRITING EXECUTED BY THE 
AUTHORIZED SIGNATORIES OF LANDLORD AND TENANT.  IN NO EVENT WHATSOEVER SHALL 
THIS LEASE BE DEEMED MODIFIED OR ALTERED IN ANY MANNER BY EITHER VERBAL OR 
WRITTEN COMMUNICATION BETWEEN TENANT AND LANDLORD'S AGENTS OR EMPLOYEES.

      (b)  Without limiting the foregoing, the parties expressly agree that 
any and all prior leases and agreements, whether oral or written, expressed 
or implied, relating to Tenant's use and occupancy of the Demised Premises 
or any portion thereof, including, without limitation, a Lease Agreement 
executed on or about July 8, 1992 between AHB Realty Corporation, as 
Landlord, and Tenant ("Prior Lease") shall be and hereby are declared null 
and void as of the Commencement Date hereunder and all of said prior leases 
and agreements and the tenancies created thereby shall be and hereby are 
terminated as of said Commencement Date.  As of said Commencement Date, all 
obligations of Landlord and Tenant under the Prior Lease shall cease and 
from and after said date the Prior Lease shall be void.  Simultaneously with 
the execution of this Lease, Landlord and Tenant shall execute a Termination 
of Lease Agreement relating to the Prior Lease in the form attached hereto 
as Termination of Lease Rider.  Said Termination of Lease Rider shall 
provide, inter alia, for full and final cross-releases between Landlord and 
Tenant relating to all claims, demands, actions and causes of action 
(collectively, "Claims") which either party (the "claiming party") may have 
against the other party arising out of or relating to the Prior Lease, to 
the extent such Claims are known to the claiming party on or prior to the 
date of execution of this Lease.  Without limiting the foregoing, Landlord 
and Tenant agree that as of the execution of this Lease, the Option to Renew 
set forth in Section 1.3 of the Prior Lease is irrevocably rendered null and 
void and of no force and effect.

      39.  Miscellaneous.  (a) The failure of either party to insist on 
strict performance of any provision of this Lease, or to exercise any right 
contained herein, shall not be construed as a waiver of such provision or 
right in any other instance.

      (b)  The captions in this Lease are intended to assist the parties in 
reading this Lease and are not a part of the provisions of this Lease.  
Whenever required by the context of this Lease, the singular shall include 
the plural and the plural shall include the singular.  The masculine, 
feminine and neuter genders shall each include the other.

      (c)  Tenant acknowledges that it has been represented, or has had the 
opportunity to be represented, in the negotiation and execution of this 
Lease by independent legal counsel selected by Tenant of its own free will 
and Tenant has had the opportunity to discuss the provisions of this Lease 
with said counsel.  In the construction of this Lease or any of the terms 
and provisions thereof, no inference shall be drawn against Landlord as a 
result of the fact that the Lease was drawn by Landlord's counsel.

      (d)  The laws of the state in which the Property is located shall 
govern this Lease.

      (e)  If Tenant is a corporation, partnership or other entity, each 
person signing this Lease on behalf of Tenant represents that he has full 
authority to do so and that this Lease binds the corporation, partnership or 
other entity, as the case may be.

      (f)  This Lease is binding upon any party who legally acquires any 
rights or interest in this Lease from Landlord or Tenant; provided, however, 
Landlord shall have no obligation to Tenant's successor unless the interest 
of Tenant's successor in this Lease is acquired in accordance with Section 
17.  The term "Landlord" as used in this Lease means only the owner, for the 
time being, or the mortgagee in possession, for the time being, of the 
Property, so that in the event of any sale of the Property, the said 
Landlord shall be and hereby is entirely freed and relieved of any liability 
for performance of all covenants and obligations of Landlord set forth in 
this Lease.

      (g)  The submission of this Lease to Tenant shall not be deemed to be 
an offer and shall not bind either party until duly executed by Landlord and 
Tenant.

      (h)  This Lease may be executed in counterparts, and, when all 
counterpart documents are executed, the counterparts shall constitute a 
single binding instrument.

      (i)  A determination by a court of competent jurisdiction that any 
provision of this Lease or any part thereof is illegal or unenforceable 
shall not invalidate the remainder of this Lease or such provision, which 
shall continue to be in effect.

      (j)  Intentionally Omitted.

      (k)  Except as otherwise herein expressly set forth, the parties 
intend that whenever Landlord's consent or approval is expressly or 
impliedly required by any provision of this Lease, the consent or approval 
may be granted or withheld arbitrarily in Landlord's sole discretion.

      (l)  Any delay by Landlord in billing Tenant for sums due under this 
Lease shall not constitute a waiver of Landlord's right to receive such sums 
from Tenant notwithstanding that this Lease may have theretofore been 
terminated or expired.

      (m)  Subject to the conditions hereinafter set forth, Tenant and its 
employees and invitees shall have the right, in common with Landlord and 
other tenants of the Property and their employees and invitees, to use the 
parking areas provided by Landlord on the Property for the parking of 
passenger automobiles, except for those areas, if any, designated 
"Excepted".  Tenant shall only park in the areas provided for Tenant's use.  
Tenant's parking shall not be reserved and shall be limited to vehicles no 
larger than standard sized passenger automobiles, passenger vans, sport 
utility vehicles or single axle or light pickup vehicles.  Tenant shall not 
cause large trucks, non-passenger vans, motor homes, mobile homes or 
trailers or other large vehicles to be parked within the parking areas.  
Vehicles shall be parked only in striped parking spaces and not in 
driveways, access roads, fire zones, loading areas or other locations not 
specifically designated for parking.  Landlord shall have the right to 
assign parking spaces for the exclusive use of Tenant and/or other tenants 
of the Property and/or Landlord and their employees and invitees, and Tenant 
and its employees and invitees shall not park their vehicles in parking 
spaces allocated to others by Landlord.  Landlord shall not be required to 
keep parking spaces clear of unauthorized vehicles or to otherwise supervise 
the use of the parking areas.  Landlord shall not be responsible for any 
damage to or theft of any vehicles in the parking areas.  Landlord may issue 
parking permits, install a gate system or impose any other system as 
Landlord deems necessary for the use of the parking areas.  Provided the 
following do not substantially adversely affect Tenant's permitted use of 
the Premises and the operation of its business at the Premises as 
contemplated by this Lease, Landlord reserves the right from time to time 
(i) to change or reduce the parking areas, roads and driveways; and (ii) to 
make any alterations or repairs that it deems necessary to the parking 
areas, roads or driveways, and to temporarily revoke or modify the parking 
rights granted to Tenant without any abatement or reduction of rent by 
reason thereof.  Landlord may designate fire zones in the parking area, 
handicapped parking spaces, loading zones (limited duration parking) and no 
parking zones, and Tenant shall not be entitled to any reduction or 
abatement of rent.  Landlord may require Tenant to furnish it with the 
automobile license numbers assigned to vehicles of Tenant and its employees 
and invitees and to notify Landlord of any changes thereof.  Upon notice to 
Tenant, Landlord may limit parking spaces to visitors.  In the event Tenant 
or any of its employees or invitees violates Landlord's parking regulations, 
Tenant agrees that Landlord may tow the violating motor vehicles at the 
expense of the vehicle owner, including charges for towing, storage and 
damage to the vehicle which may occur.

      (n)  Intentionally Omitted.

      (o)  Provided the following does not substantially adversely affect 
Tenant's permitted use of the Premises and the operation of its business at 
the Premises as contemplated by this Lease, Landlord reserves the right to 
suspend any of the services agreed to be supplied by Landlord hereunder when 
reasonably necessary by reason of accident or for repairs, alterations, 
replacements or improvements necessary or desirable in the reasonable 
judgment of Landlord for as long as shall be reasonably required by reason 
thereof, and, except as may be otherwise expressly set forth in this Lease, 
Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant and Tenant shall not be entitled to 
any abatement or reduction of Rent by reason thereof.

      (p)  Tenant shall observe the rules and regulations set forth in the 
Rules and Regulations Rider attached hereto, and such other reasonable rules 
and regulations as Landlord may from time to time adopt, on prior written 
notice to Tenant.  Landlord shall not be obligated to enforce the rules and 
regulations against any tenant, and Landlord shall not be liable for 
violation of same by any tenant, or any of its employees or invitees.

      (q)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, with respect to 
the parking spaces located in the front of the Building, but not the parking 
spaces at the sides or rear of the Building, Tenant agrees that it and its 
employees, servants, agents, contractors, licensees and invitees shall 
utilize only those parking spaces located in front of the Premises and not 
any parking spaces located in any other portion of the front of the 
Building.

      (r)  If at any time during the Term hereof a dispute shall arise as to 
any amount or sum of money to be paid by one party to the other party under 
the provisions hereof, the party against whom the obligation to pay the 
money is asserted shall have the right to make payment "under protest" which 
payment shall not be regarded as a voluntary payment, and there shall 
survive the right on the part of such party to institute suit for recovery 
of such sum.  If it shall be adjudged that there was no legal obligation on 
the part of such party to pay such sum or any part thereof, such party shall 
be entitled to recover from the other party such sum or so much thereof as 
it was not legally required to pay under the provisions of this Lease.

      (s)  If at any time a dispute shall arise between the parties hereto 
as to any work to be performed by either of them under the provisions 
hereof, the party against whom the obligation to perform the work is 
asserted may perform such work and pay the cost thereof "under protest", 
performance of such work in no event to be regarded as a voluntary 
performance, and there shall survive the right on the part of such party to 
institute suit for recovery for the reasonable cost of such work.  If it 
shall be adjudged that there was no legal obligation on the part of such 
party to perform such work or any party thereof, such party shall be 
entitled to recover from the other party the reasonable cost of such work or 
the reasonable cost of so much thereof as such party was not legally 
required to perform under this Lease.

      (t)  In the event of any litigation or other adversarial proceeding 
between Landlord and Tenant under, or relating to, the provisions of this 
Lease, the prevailing party, by final court order, judgment or decree, shall 
be entitled to recover from the non-prevailing party all of the prevailing 
party's reasonable costs and expenses including, without limitation, 
reasonable legal fees, incurred in such litigation or other proceeding.

      (u)  The provisions of Sections 39(t), 39(u) and 39(v) shall survive 
the expiration or earlier termination of the Term hereof.

      (v)  Upon execution hereof, Landlord and Tenant shall execute a Notice 
of Lease pursuant to the provisions of New Hampshire R.S.A. 477:7-a, in a 
form reasonably satisfactory to Landlord and Tenant.

      40.  Right of Early Termination.  (a) Tenant shall have a one time 
only right to terminate this Lease, such termination to be effective as of 
11:59 p.m. of the last day of the seventh Lease Year of the Term hereof (the 
"Early Termination Date"), provided, Tenant satisfies each and every one of 
the following conditions:

            1.  Tenant shall give Landlord written notice of Tenant's 
      election to exercise the right of termination set forth in this 
      Section 40(a) ("Notice of Termination"), which Notice of Termination 
      must be received by Landlord (i) no earlier than the first day of the 
      sixth (6th) Lease Year of the Term hereof and (ii) no later than the 
      last day of the sixth (6th) Lease Year of the Term hereof.  Time shall 
      be strictly of the essence with respect to delivery of the Notice of 
      Termination.  If, for any reason whatsoever, Landlord receives the 
      Notice of Termination prior to the first day of the sixth (6th) Lease 
      Year, said Notice of Termination shall conclusively be deemed null and 
      void and of no force and effect.  If, for any reason whatsoever, 
      Landlord fails to receive the Notice of Termination on or before the 
      last day of the sixth (6th) Lease Year of the Term hereof, Tenant's 
      right to terminate as set forth in this Section 40(a) shall 
      automatically and irrevocably lapse and be null and void.

            2.  Tenant shall not be in material default under the terms of 
      this Lease on the date Landlord receives the Notice of Termination and 
      on the Early Termination Date.  This condition may be waived by 
      Landlord at its sole discretion and may not be used by Tenant as a 
      means to negate the effectiveness of Tenant's exercise of the right to 
      terminate.

            3.  The Notice of Termination shall be accompanied by a check, 
      made payable to Landlord, in an amount equal to three (3) monthly 
      installments of Rent, at the rate of Rent in effect for the sixth 
      (6th) Lease Year of the Term hereof, which amount shall be due and 
      payable as an early termination fee, in addition to, and not in lieu 
      of or substitution of, all Annual Base Rent, Additional Rent and/or 
      other charges due and owing from Tenant to Landlord through the Early 
      Termination Date.  As used in this paragraph, the term "Rent" shall 
      include Annual Base Rent, Tax Rent, Expense Rent, Additional Rent and 
      any and all other items included within the definition of Rent as set 
      forth in Section 4(c) hereof.

      (b)  If Landlord receives a timely and proper written Notice of 
Termination and if Tenant otherwise satisfies all of the conditions 
hereinbefore set forth in Section 40(a), then, the parties shall perform 
their respective obligations and enjoy their respective rights under this 
Lease through the Early Termination Date, the term of this Lease shall 
terminate at 11:59 p.m. on the Early Termination Date as if said date were 
the date initially set forth for the termination of the Term of this Lease 
and on or before 11:59 p.m. of the Early Termination Date, Tenant shall 
vacate and surrender the Premises to Landlord in the condition required by 
this Lease for surrender of the Premises upon expiration of the Term.  Upon 
Landlord's receipt of such a timely and proper written Notice of 
Termination, and Tenant's satisfaction of all of the conditions hereinbefore 
set forth in Section 40(a), and Tenant's vacation and surrender of the 
Premises as aforesaid, all obligations of the parties under this Lease shall 
cease and thereafter this Lease shall be void, except to the extent that any 
provision of this Lease expressly provides that a particular obligation of 
either Landlord or Tenant shall survive the expiration or termination of the 
Term hereof.

      THE RIDERS ENUMERATED IN SECTION 1(I) ARE ATTACHED HERETO AND MADE A 
PART OF THIS LEASE AS FULLY AS IF SET FORTH HEREIN AT LENGTH.  THE TERMS 
USED IN THE RIDER HAVE THE SAME MEANINGS AS SET FORTH IN THE LEASE.  THE 
PROVISIONS OF A RIDER SHALL PREVAIL OVER ANY PROVISIONS OF THE LEASE WHICH 
ARE INCONSISTENT OR CONFLICT WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THE RIDER.

      IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereby have duly executed this Lease 
as of the date set forth in Section 1(a).

                           ANNUAL BASE RENT RIDER
                           ----------------------


Date of Lease:     August 12, 1997

Landlord:          PVP-Salem Associates, L.P.

Tenant:            Parlex Corporation

Property:          Portion of 7 Industrial Way, Salem, N.H.


      1.  Annual Base Rent.  The Annual Base Rent payable by Tenant to 
Landlord for each and every Lease Year of the Term shall be as follows:

      For the first Lease Year of the Term hereof, the Annual Base Rent 
shall be $192,100.00 per annum, payable in equal monthly installments of 
$16,008.33 per month.  For each particular Lease Year from, after and 
including the second Lease Year of the Term hereof, through, to and 
including the tenth Lease Year of the Term hereof (said particular Lease 
Year being hereinafter in this paragraph referred to as the "Lease Year in 
Question"), Annual Base Rent shall be an annual amount equal to the product 
of (i) $192,100.00 multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which 
shall be the Index (as hereinafter defined) existing on the first day of the 
Lease Year In Question and the denominator of which shall be the Index 
existing as of the Commencement Date; provided, however, that in no event 
whatsoever shall the Annual Base Rent for the Lease Year In Question be less 
than $192,100.00.  As used herein, the term "Index" shall mean and shall 
refer to the Consumer Price Index, All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) for the 
Boston -- Lawrence -- Salem, MA -- NH Area, all items (1982-84 = 100) of the 
United State Bureau of Labor Statistics, United States Department of Labor.  
In the event that as of any relevant date the Index is no longer published 
or issued, such other index as in Landlord's reasonable judgment provides a 
basis for wage negotiations shall be used and employed in the place and 
stead thereof.  Without limiting the foregoing, in the event that the level 
of the Index for the first day of the Lease Year In Question is not known as 
of said first day, Tenant shall continue to pay Annual Base Rent at the rate 
in effect immediately prior to the commencement of the Lease Year In 
Question until the Index for the first day of the Lease Year In Question 
becomes available.  Thereafter, Landlord shall determine the proper Annual 
Base Rent payable during the Lease Year In Question, which shall apply 
retroactively from and after the first day of the Lease Year In Question.  
To the extent that Tenant shall have paid less than the full and proper 
amount of Annual Base Rent from and after the first day of the Lease Year In 
Question, said deficiency shall be paid to Landlord within fifteen (15) days 
of Landlord's demand therefor.

                           EXTENSION OPTION RIDER
                           ----------------------


Date of Lease:     August 12, 1997

Landlord:          PVP-Salem Associates, L.P.

Tenant:            Parlex Corporation

Property:          Portion of 7 Industrial Way, Salem, N.H.


      1.  Grant of Option.  So long as Tenant has not theretofore exercised 
its right of early termination as set forth in Section 40 hereof, and 
subject to all of the provisions of this Rider, Landlord hereby grants to 
Tenant the option (the "Option") to extend the Term following the expiration 
of the original term hereof (the "Initial Term") for an additional term of 
ten (10) years (the "Extension Term").

      2.  Exercise of Option.  The Option shall be exercised only by written 
notice (the "Extension Notice") delivered to Landlord in accordance with 
Section 35 of the Lease at least one (1) year before the expiration of the 
Initial Term.  No verbal communication by Tenant with Landlord or any of its 
principals, agents or employees of exercise of this Option shall be an 
effective exercise of this Option.  Time shall be of the essence with 
respect to delivery of the Extension Notice and if, for any reason 
whatsoever, Landlord fails to receive the Extension Notice within the 
specified time period, the Option shall automatically and irrevocably lapse, 
be null and void and Tenant shall have no further right to extend the Term.

      3.  Conditions Precedent to Option.  The Option shall be exercisable 
by Tenant and the Lease shall continue for the Extension Term on all of the 
foregoing conditions:

      (a)  At the time Landlord receives the Extension Notice and at the 
commencement of the Extension Term, Tenant shall not then be in material 
default under any of the provisions of the Lease.  This condition may be 
waived by Landlord at its sole discretion and may not be used by Tenant as a 
means to negate the effectiveness of Tenant's Extension Notice.

      (b)  At the time Landlord receives the Extension Notice and at the 
commencement of the Extension Term, the Tenant named in Section 1(c) of the 
Lease shall not have assigned the Lease or sublet any portion of the Demised 
Premises.

      4.  Extension Term Provisions.  The Extension Term shall be on all of 
the same terms and conditions set forth in the Lease and applicable to the 
Initial Term, including provisions relating to the payment of Additional 
Rent, except that the Annual Base Rent for the Extension Term shall be 
determined in the following manner:

      (a)  The Annual Base Rent for the first Lease Year of the Extension 
Term shall be the then current market rental rate for comparable industrial 
space in Salem, New Hampshire (the "Fair Market Rental"), provided, however, 
that in no event whatsoever shall the Annual Base Rent for the first Lease 
Year of the Extension Term be less than the Annual Base Rent for the last 
Lease Year of the Initial Term.  If the Fair Market Rental as determined by 
Landlord is not greater than the Annual Base Rent for the last Lease Year of 
the Initial Term, then, the Annual Base Rent for the first Lease Year of the 
Extension Term shall conclusively be deemed to be equal to the Annual Base 
Rent for the last Lease Year of the Initial Term, and Landlord shall provide 
notice to that effect to Tenant.  If, in Landlord's opinion, the Fair Market 
Rental is greater than the Annual Base Rent for the last Lease Year of the 
Initial Term, then, Landlord shall set forth its opinion of the Fair Market 
Rental in a written notice from Landlord to Tenant ("Notice of Rent 
Determination") given within sixty (60) days following Landlord's actual 
receipt of the Extension Notice from Tenant, If Tenant does not wish to 
accept the Fair Market Rental as set forth in Landlord's Notice of Rent 
Determination, then, Tenant shall give Landlord written notice of such non-
acceptance ("Tenant's Notice of Non-Acceptance") within twenty (20) days 
after Tenant's receipt of Landlord's Notice of Rent Determination; said 
twenty (20) day period being strictly of the essence.  If Tenant notifies 
Landlord that Tenant accepts Landlord's determination of the Fair Market 
Rental, or, if, for any reason whatsoever, Landlord fails to receive a 
timely and proper Notice of Non-Acceptance, then, Tenant shall 
automatically, conclusively, and irrevocably be deemed to have accepted and 
agreed to the Fair Market Rental set forth in Landlord's Notice of Rent 
Determination.  If Tenant delivers a timely and proper Notice of Non-
Acceptance to Landlord, then, Tenant shall automatically, conclusively and 
irrevocably be deemed to have withdrawn and nullified its prior exercise of 
the Option to extend the Term of this Lease for the Extension Term, unless 
said Notice of Non-Acceptance expressly contains a demand to submit the 
determination of the Fair Market Rental to the appraisal process described 
below.

      (b)  If Tenant's timely and proper Notice of Non-Acceptance contains a 
demand to submit the determination of the Fair Market Rental to appraisal, 
then, within twenty (20) days of said proper and timely demand, Landlord and 
Tenant shall each retain a reputable appraiser with at least ten (10) years 
experience in appraising industrial buildings in Salem, New Hampshire.  Each 
party shall bear the cost of its appraiser.  Each party shall direct its 
appraiser to render his/her opinion of the Fair Market Rental within thirty 
(30) days of the date of his/her selection.  Each party's appraiser shall 
prepare a written report setting forth said appraiser's opinion of the Fair 
Market Rental.  In the event that the Fair Market Rentals determined by the 
two appraisers shall not differ by more than five (5%) percent of the lower 
appraisal, then the Fair Market Rental shall be deemed to be the average of 
the two appraisals and said average shall be final, conclusive and binding 
on Landlord and Tenant.  If the Fair Market Rentals determined by the two 
appraisers shall differ by more than such five (5%) percent amount, then, 
the two (2) appraisers shall select a third appraiser with at least ten (10) 
years experience in appraising industrial buildings in Salem, New Hampshire, 
with Landlord and Tenant each to pay one half (1/2) of the cost of such 
third appraiser.  Said third appraiser's sole function shall be to select as 
the Fair Market Rental either the Fair Market Rental determined by 
Landlord's appraiser or the Fair Market Rental determined by Tenant's 
appraiser.  Said third appraiser shall have no right to average the 
appraisals of Landlord's appraiser and Tenant's appraiser or otherwise 
select as the Fair Market Rental any amount other that determined by 
Landlord's appraiser or that determined by Tenant' appraiser.  So long as 
the third appraiser proceeds as aforesaid, the determination of the Fair 
Market Rental by the third appraiser shall be binding and conclusive on 
Landlord and Tenant and shall be set forth in an Amendment to Lease which 
Landlord and Tenant shall both promptly execute.  The third (3rd) appraiser 
shall be instructed to submit his or her appraisal report within thirty (30) 
days after the date of his or her engagement.

      (c)  For each particular Lease Year of the Extension Term from, after 
and including the second Lease Year of the Extension Term hereof, through, 
to and including the tenth Lease Year of the Extension Term hereof (said 
particular Lease Year being hereinafter in this paragraph referred to as the 
"Lease Year in Question"), Annual Base Rent shall be an annual amount equal 
to the product of (i) Fair Market Rental multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the 
numerator of which shall be the Index (as hereinafter defined) existing on 
the first day of the Lease Year In Question and the denominator of which 
shall be the Index existing as of the first day of the first Lease Year of 
the Extension Term; provided, however, that in no event whatsoever shall the 
Annual Base Rent for the Lease Year In Question be less than the Fair Market 
Rental.  As used herein, the term "Index" shall mean and shall refer to the 
Consumer Price Index, All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) for the Boston -- Lawrence 
-- Salem, MA -- NH Area, all items (1982-84 = 100) of the United State 
Bureau of Labor Statistics, United States Department of Labor.  In the event 
that as of any relevant date the Index is no longer published or issued, 
such other index as in Landlord's reasonable judgment provides a basis for 
wage negotiations shall be used and employed in the place and stead thereof.  
Without limiting the foregoing, in the event that the level of the Index for 
the first day of the Lease Year In Question is not known as of said first 
day, Tenant shall continue to pay Annual Base Rent at the rate in effect 
immediately prior to the commencement of the Lease Year In Question until 
the Index for the first day of the Lease Year In Question becomes available.  
Thereafter, Landlord shall determine the proper Annual Base Rent payable 
during the Lease Year In Question, which shall apply retroactively from and 
after the first day of the Lease Year In Question.  To the extent that 
Tenant shall have paid less than the full and proper amount of Annual Base 
Rent from and after the first day of the Lease Year In Question, said 
deficiency shall be paid to Landlord within fifteen (15) days of Landlord's 
demand therefor.

      (d)  If Tenant's Notice of Non-Acceptance does not contain a demand to 
submit the determination of the Fair Market Rental to the appraisal process 
described above, then, Tenant shall automatically, conclusively and 
irrevocably be deemed to have withdrawn and nullified its prior exercise of 
the Option to extend the Term of this Lease for the Extension Term; the Term 
of this Lease shall expire upon the last day of the Initial Term; and Tenant 
shall have no further option of any nature whatsoever to extend the Term 
beyond said last day of said Initial Term.

      (e)  Tenant shall have no option to further extend the Term beyond the 
Extension Term herein provided.

                            REAL ESTATE TAX RIDER
                            ---------------------


Date of Lease:     August 12, 1997

Landlord:          PVP-Salem Associates, L.P.

Tenant:            Parlex Corporation

Property:          Portion of 7 Industrial Way, Salem, N.H.


      Tenant shall pay as Additional Rent, Tenant's Proportionate Share, as 
defined in Par. 1(j) of the Lease, of all real estate taxes assessed against 
the Property for any tax fiscal year which occurs wholly or partially during 
the Term of this Lease (such Additional Rent is hereinbefore and hereinafter 
called the "Tax Rent").  The term "real estate taxes" shall mean (i) any 
tax, assessment or other governmental charge of any kind, which at any time 
during the Term may be levied, assessed, or imposed upon, or become due and 
payable with respect to, or against the Property and/or the Building or any 
part of either; (ii) any assessment for public betterment or improvements 
levied, assessed or imposed upon or against the Property; (iii) any 
reasonable legal fees, court costs, appraisal fees and other costs incurred 
by Landlord in connection with contesting the assessed valuation of the 
Property for real estate tax purposes; (iv) any tax levied, assessed or 
imposed at any time upon or against the receipt of income or rents and/or 
the use or occupancy of all or any portion of the Building and/or Land, 
including, without limitation, any so-called "occupancy tax" or so-called 
"use tax"; and (v) any other tax, levy, assessment or charge replacing or 
supplementing in whole or in part any tax, levy, assessment or charge 
included within clause (i) through (iv) directly above.  Real estate taxes 
for any tax fiscal year beginning before the Commencement Date or 
terminating after the Expiration Date shall be apportioned so that Tenant 
shall pay only such portion of the real estate taxes as shall be 
attributable to the portion of such tax fiscal year occurring during the 
Term of this Lease.  The term "real estate taxes" shall not include income 
taxes, estate taxes, or inheritance taxes.  Tenant shall pay 100% of any 
increase in tax assessment attributable to improvements or alterations to 
the Building and/or Premises made by or for Tenant specially.

      If a tax, levy or assessment for public improvements is levied against 
the Property, and if Landlord elects to pay such assessment in installments, 
then, Tenant shall pay its Proportionate Share of the installments payable 
during or attributable to the Term, together with any interest due as a 
result of the installment payments.  Any installment which relates partially 
to a period during the Term hereof and partially to a period outside the 
Term hereof shall be appropriately prorated.

      Tenant shall pay its Tax Rent, as Additional Rent in monthly 
installments on the first day of each month on an estimated basis as 
determined by Landlord.  Landlord may adjust such estimate at any time and 
from time to time based upon Landlord's reasonable anticipation of the real 
estate taxes which may be assessed against the Property.  Within a 
reasonable time after the real estate taxes for any tax fiscal year shall be 
fixed by the appropriate governmental authorities, Landlord shall deliver to 
Tenant a statement setting forth the actual real estate taxes assessed 
against the Property for such tax fiscal year, the amount paid by Tenant as 
Tax Rent on account thereof, Tenant's Share of such real estate taxes, and 
the amount due to or from Tenant, together with a copy of the actual tax 
bill.  If Tenant has paid less than the actual amount due, Tenant shall pay 
the difference to Landlord within fifteen (15) days after Landlord's request 
therefor as Additional Rent.  Any amount paid by Tenant which exceeds the 
actual amount due shall be credited to the next succeeding payments due as 
Tax Rent hereunder, unless the Term has then expired in which event such 
excess amount shall be refunded to Tenant forthwith.

      Tenant shall have a period of fifteen (15) days after receipt 
Landlord's statement of Tax Rent due to object to Landlord's billing.  Such 
objection shall be in writing and delivered to Landlord within fifteen (15) 
days of Tenant's receipt of such bill, and shall be accompanied by payment 
in full of the Tax Rent.  Tenant shall then have a period of thirty (30) 
days to review the records of Landlord with respect to the real estate taxes 
of the Property.  During said review, Landlord shall make available to 
Tenant evidence of Landlord's payment of real estate taxes.  In the event 
Tenant does not give such notice on a timely basis, or make such 
investigation on a timely basis, Tenant's right to object to the Tax Rent 
shall be deemed waived and Landlord's statement of Tax Rent deemed approved 
by Tenant.  Time shall be of the essence with respect to Tenant's notice of 
objection and review of Landlord's records.  Without limiting the foregoing, 
if Tenant's review of Landlord's records relating to real estate taxes for 
any particular period of the Term hereof demonstrates to the satisfaction of 
Landlord and Tenant that Tenant has paid more than Tenant's Proportionate 
Share of all real estate taxes for said period, then, the excess amount paid 
by Tenant shall be utilized by Tenant as a credit against its obligation to 
pay Annual Base Rent and/or Additional Rent for any period after the date of 
said review.

replacing the drainage on the Property; inspecting, repairing or resurfacing 
the roof; repairing, adjusting or replacing parts of the HVAC equipment; 
electrical repairs or replacements; plumbing repairs or replacements; common 
area, restroom and/or hallway repairs or replacements; commissions and 
consulting fees in connection with the placement of insurance (provided, 
that if such insurance relates to the Property, as well as other properties, 
then, such commissions and consulting fees shall be equitably allocated 
between the Property and such other properties); direct wages, fringe 
benefits and payroll taxes of all employees specifically required to provide 
services to the Property; labor and materials for repairs and replacements 
for the Building and other improvements on the Property; trash removal; 
service contracts provided the same are competitively bid on an annual 
basis; fuel oil; painting; security; elevator inspection, maintenance and 
repair; telephonic expenses solely as reasonable and necessary for the 
operation of the Property; common area and parking lot utilities; signage 
and directory costs; professional fees to the extent they are related to the 
operation and/or management of the Property; administrative expenses; 
management fees; and alterations and improvements made by reason of 
governmental requirements unless such alterations or improvements are 
required as a result of another tenant's specific use of its premises at the 
Property.  The costs of cleaning the Common Areas and utilities serving the 
Common Areas only shall be included in "expenses".  Notwithstanding anything 
to the contrary herein, it is agreed that all costs incurred by Landlord for 
any item that would be characterized as a capital improvement under 
generally accepted accounting principles shall be amortized on a straight 
line basis over the useful life of said capital improvement.  During each 
year of the Term hereof only said portion of said costs as are allocable to 
said year together with interest on said costs, from the date said costs 
were incurred, at the rate of Prime plus one (1%) percent per annum, shall 
be included in "expenses".  If the Commencement Date is other than the first 
day of a calendar year, or the Expiration Date is prior to the last day of a 
calendar year, the Expense Rent shall be apportioned so that Tenant shall 
pay only such portion of the expenses of the Property attributable to such 
calendar year occurring during the Term of this Lease.

      As used herein, the term "Landlord's Insurance Costs" shall mean any 
and all premiums and other costs incurred by Landlord in order to obtain 
and/or maintain one or more of the following policies of insurance for the 
Property or any part thereof:  (i) insurance covering all risk of physical 
loss or damage to the Building in the full amount of its replacement value 
(including agreed amount endorsement), but in no event less than the amount 
required by any mortgagee of the Property ("Landlord's Mortgagee") (such 
policy shall provide protection against all perils included within the 
classification of fire, extended coverage, vandalism, malicious mischief, 
special extended perils, including demolition and increased cost of 
construction, water damage, sprinkler leakage, and any other perils which 
Landlord or Landlord's Mortgagee deems reasonably necessary or which 
Landlord's Mortgagee requires); (ii) rental income insurance in an amount 
equal to one year's Annual Base Rent and all Additional Rent; (iii) 
insurance against loss or damage by boiler or machinery or internal 
explosion or breakdown of boilers, equipment or electrical appurtenances, in 
an amount required by Landlord or any Landlord's Mortgagee; (iv) flood 
hazard insurance in the amount of the full replacement cost of the Building, 
or if such amount of insurance is not obtainable, in the maximum amount 
which is obtainable if such flood hazard insurance is required by Landlord's 
Mortgagee; and (iv) comprehensive public liability insurance, including 
contractual liability coverage; plus any deductible amount provided for 
under any of the foregoing policies in the event of loss.

      Tenant shall pay its Expense Rent as Additional Rent in monthly 
installments on the first day of each month on an estimated basis as 
reasonably determined by Landlord.  Landlord may adjust such estimate at any 
time and from time to time based upon Landlord's experience and anticipation 
of costs, provided such adjustments are not made more than twice in any 
Lease Year.  After the end of each calendar year during the Term, Landlord 
shall deliver to Tenant a statement setting forth the actual expenses of the 
Property for such calendar year, the amount paid by Tenant as Expense Rent 
on account thereof, Tenant's Share of such expenses, and the amount due to 
or from Tenant.  If Tenant has paid less than the actual amount due, Tenant 
shall pay the difference to Landlord within fifteen (15) days after 
Landlord's request therefor as Additional Rent.  Any amount paid by Tenant 
which exceeds the amount due shall be credited to the next succeeding 
payments due as Expense Rent hereunder, unless the Term has then expired in 
which event such excess amount shall be refunded to Tenant.

      Tenant shall have a period of fifteen (15) days after receipt 
Landlord's statement of Expense Rent due to object to Landlord's billing.  
Such objection shall be in writing and delivered to Landlord within fifteen 
(15) days of Tenant's receipt of such bill and shall be accompanied by 
payment in full of the Expense Rent.  Tenant shall then have a period of 
thirty (30) days to review the records of Landlord with respect to the 
expenses of the Property.  In the event Tenant does not give such notice on 
a timely basis, or make such investigation on a timely basis, Tenant's right 
to object to the Expense Rent shall be deemed waived and Landlord's 
statement of Expense Rent deemed approved by Tenant.  Time shall be of the 
essence with respect to Tenant's notice.  Without limiting the foregoing, if 
Tenant's review of Landlord's records relating to expenses for any 
particular period of the Term hereof demonstrates to the satisfaction of 
Landlord and Tenant that Tenant has paid more than Tenant's Proportionate 
Share of expenses for said period, then, the excess amount paid by Tenant 
shall be utilized by Tenant as a credit against its obligation to pay Annual 
Base Rent and/or Additional Rent for any period after the date of said 
review.

      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the following shall 
not be deemed "expenses":  (i) costs incurred by Landlord to repair or 
remedy defects in the initial construction of the Building; (ii) costs 
incurred by Landlord to construct an improvement to the Building which is 
intended to benefit only a specific tenant of the Building; and (iii) costs 
incurred by Landlord, which would otherwise be "expenses" under this Rider, 
which costs are reimbursed to Landlord by insurance carriers or contractors.

                            AVAILABLE SPACE RIDER
                            ---------------------

Date of Lease:     August 12, 1997

Landlord:          PVP-Salem Associates, L.P.

Tenant:            Parlex Corporation

Property:          Portion of 7 Industrial Way, Salem, N.H.


      1.  The Enco Space.  Subject to all of the provisions of this Rider, 
Tenant agrees that it shall add to the Demised Premises that portion of the 
Building presently occupied by Enco Manufacturing Company (the "Enco 
Space"), at such time as the Enco Space becomes vacant and available for 
lease during the Term hereof, provided that the Enco Space becomes available 
for occupancy on or before December 1, 1998.  Landlord represents that the 
Enco Space contains approximately 12,000 square feet.  Without limiting the 
foregoing, Landlord shall use best faith efforts to terminate the current 
lease for the Enco Space and cause the present tenant thereof to vacate same 
and remove all its possessions as soon as possible after the date of 
execution hereof.

      2.  Notice of Availability.  Landlord shall notify Tenant that the 
Enco Space will become vacant and ready for occupancy in the condition 
hereinafter provided by this Rider (the "Space Notice").  This Space Notice 
shall set forth the date on which Landlord anticipates being able to deliver 
possession of the Enco Space to Tenant and the amount by which the Annual 
Base Rent for the Demised Premises shall be increased.  Said increase in 
Annual Base Rent shall be determined by Landlord by dividing the Annual Base 
Rent in effect on the date of the Space Notice by 34,000 and then 
multiplying the quotient so determined by 12,000 (subject to any increase in 
Annual Base Rent that Landlord may be entitled to if the Space Notice is 
sent in one particular Lease Year and the date on which Tenant first 
occupies the Enco Space occurs in a subsequent Lease Year).

      From and after the Possession Date, as said term is defined in Section 
3 of this Available Space Rider, all references in the Lease to the term 
Annual Base Rent, including, without limitation, all references to said term 
in the Annual Base Rent Rider, shall be deemed references to the Annual Base 
Rent as increased by this Section 2 of this Available Space Rider.  Without 
limiting the foregoing, it is expressly understood and agreed that from and 
after the Possession Date, the annual increases in Annual Base Rent provided 
for in the Annual Base Rent Rider shall apply to the entire Annual Base 
Rent, including that portion allocable to the Enco Space.

      3.  Condition of Enco Space, Delivery of Possession.  The Enco Space 
shall not be deemed ready for occupancy, nor in compliance with the 
provisions of this Rider, until and unless Landlord is ready and able to 
deliver same to Tenant in the following condition:  broom clean, with all 
personal property, trade fixtures, machinery and equipment removed 
therefrom; all sprinkler, electrical, plumbing and HVAC systems which 
service the Enco Space in good working order; and all interior walls and 
floors in good condition, without any holes or similar damage.  Except as 
hereinabove set forth, Tenant shall accept the Enco Space in its "as is" 
condition on the Possession Date (as said term is hereinafter defined), and 
except for Landlord's obligations under the immediately preceding sentence, 
all alterations and improvements to the Enco Space, if any, shall be made at 
Tenant's expense, subject always, however, to all the terms and provisions 
of this Lease relating to alterations, modifications and improvements of the 
Demised Premises.  So long as the Enco Space is then ready for occupancy, 
the term "Possession Date" shall mean the earlier of (i) the thirty-first 
(31st) day following the date Tenant receives the Space Notice and (ii) the 
first day Tenant commences to use and occupy the Enco Space.  If, however, 
the Enco Space is not then ready for occupancy, the Possession Date shall be 
postponed until the day on which the Enco Space becomes ready for occupancy 
as provided for herein.  Without limiting the foregoing, it is agreed that 
Tenant shall not be responsible for any environmental or other pre-existing 
dangerous or illegal conditions existing at the Enco Space prior to the 
Possession Date.

      4.  Not an Option.  It is not the intent of Landlord and Tenant to 
grant Tenant any option hereunder.  Rather, it is the express intent of 
Landlord and Tenant hereunder to require (i) Landlord to deliver the Enco 
Space and (ii) Tenant to accept the Enco Space, subject always to the terms 
and provisions of this Rider.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary 
herein, Landlord, at its sole discretion, may elect not to deliver the Enco 
Space to Tenant on the Possession Date, in which case the Enco Space shall 
not become part of the Demised Premises, if, as of the Possession Date, one 
or more of the following conditions exists:

      (a)  Tenant is in material default with respect to any of its 
obligations under this Lease; or

      (b)  The Tenant named in Section 1(c) of the Lease shall have 
theretofore assigned this Lease or sublet any portion of the Premises.

It is expressly understood and agreed that Landlord, in its sole and 
absolute discretion, may elect to deliver the Enco Space to Tenant on the 
Possession Date notwithstanding the existence of one or more of said 
conditions, in which event Tenant shall accept the Enco Space and said Enco 
Space shall thereupon become part of the Demised Premises.

      5.  Enco Space Provisions.  (a)  From and after the Possession Date 
the Lease shall be deemed amended to include the Enco Space as part of the 
Demised Premises and the terms "Premises" and "Demised Premises" as used in 
this Lease shall thereafter be deemed to include the Enco Space.  From and 
after the Possession Date, all of the terms and conditions set forth in the 
Lease shall be applicable to the Enco Space as if same were originally part 
of the Premises, except the Annual Base Rent shall be as set forth in 
Landlord's Space Notice and Tenant's Proportionate Share shall be increased 
to 62.59%, which percentage Landlord represents shall be Tenant's true, 
correct and accurate Proportionate Share after the Possession Date.

      (b)  At any time after the Possession Date, Tenant shall execute and 
deliver to Landlord an agreement confirming the addition of the Enco Space 
to the Demised Premises, and setting forth the square foot area of the Enco 
Space, the Possession Date, the Annual Base Rent for the Enco Space and the 
aggregate Annual Base Rent for the Demised Premises (including the Enco 
Space) on the Possession Date, and such other matters as Landlord shall 
reasonably request or require.

      6.  No Violations.  Landlord represents and warrants to Tenant that to 
the best of Landlord's knowledge on the date of execution hereof, Landlord 
is not in receipt of any notices of outstanding violations of any 
ordinances, orders, rules, regulations, and other governmental requirements 
relating to the use, condition and occupancy of the Enco Space, including 
the Americans With Disabilities Act, all handicapped access related 
requirements and all rules, orders, regulations and requirements of the 
Board of Fire Underwriters or insurance service office, or any similar body 
having jurisdiction over the Enco Space.

      7.  Rent Concession.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, 
Tenant shall not be obligated to pay any Annual Base Rent or Additional Rent 
for the Enco Space for the first thirty (30) days following the Possession 
Date.

                         TERMINATION OF LEASE RIDER
                         --------------------------

      TERMINATION OF LEASE, by and between PVP-SALEM ASSOCIATES, L.P., as 
Landlord, and PARLEX CORPORATION, as Tenant.

                                 BACKGROUND
                                 ----------

      A.  On or about July 8, 1992, AHB Realty Corporation, as Landlord and 
Tenant entered into an Agreement of Lease (the "Lease" for the purposes of 
this Rider only) for certain premises located at 7 Industrial Way, Salem, 
New Hampshire (the "Premises" for the purposes of this Rider only).  The 
term of the Lease expired June 30, 1997. 

      B.  Landlord is the successor-in-interest to AHB Realty Corporation.  
Tenant and Landlord now wish to enter into a new lease ("New Lease") for the 
Premises.

      C.  Each party (hereinafter in this paragraph the "first party") is 
prepared to enter into the New Lease if and only if the other party agrees 
to formally terminate the Lease and release the first party and all of the 
first party's predecessors-in-interest from all presently known claims 
thereunder.

                                  AGREEMENT
                                  ---------

      FOR AND IN CONSIDERATION of the foregoing premises and in further 
consideration of the covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, the 
parties agree as follows:

      1.  The Lease shall be and hereby is terminated as of 11:59 P.M. on 
the date ("Termination Date") immediately preceding the Commencement Date of 
the New Lease.

      2.  Effective as of the Commencement Date of the New Lease, Tenant 
shall and hereby does irrevocably, unconditionally, fully and finally 
release Landlord and all of Landlord's predecessors-in-interest from any and 
all claims, demands, actions and causes of action (collectively, "Claims") 
which Tenant may have against Landlord and/or any or all of Landlord's 
predecessors-in-interest as a result of or in connection with the Lease or 
Tenant's use and occupancy of the Premises at all times prior to the 
Commencement Date of the New Lease, no matter how or under what theory of 
liability such claims arise, to the extent such Claims are presently known 
to Tenant.

      3.  Effective as of the Commencement Date of the New Lease, Landlord 
shall and hereby does irrevocably, unconditionally, fully and finally 
release Tenant and all of Tenant's predecessors-in-interest from any and all 
Claims which Landlord may have against Tenant and/or any or all of Tenant's 
predecessors-in-interest as a result of or in connection with the Lease or 
Tenant's use and occupancy of the Premises at all times prior to the 
Commencement Date of the New Lease, no matter how or under what theory of 
liability such claims arise, to the extent such Claims are presently known 
to Landlord.

      4.  Each party (hereinafter in this Section the "first party") 
acknowledges that the other party (hereinafter in this Section the "second 
party") would not enter into the New Lease unless the first party executed 
and delivered to the second party this instrument, including the release 
provisions set forth in Sections 2 and 3 above.  The first party agrees that 
the execution by the second party of the New Lease is sufficient 
consideration to the first party for granting of said release.  The first 
party agrees that it shall not seek any additional consideration from the 
second party or any of the second party's  predecessors-in-interest for the 
granting of said release.

      IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have hereunto set their hands 
and seals this 12th day of August, 1997.
